Annie’s (Piper Perabo) latest assignment sends her to Paris on her birthday where she’s given the task of cultivating a member of the Syrian Embassy (Helena Soubeyrand) as an asset for the CIA. The trouble is, she’s not the only one with that assignment.

Annie Walker (Piper Perabo) is back to work for the CIA as Covert Affairs moves into its Second Season. I was really hoping the Ben Mercer (Eion Bailey) storyline died with him in the First Season finale, but it appears both will be sticking around for the foreseeable future.

Imagine Me & You is an interesting film. It’s a love story without almost any heat or sex. Instead it focuses on the romantic and emotional type of love. Can a film like this work? Well, kinda’. Rated R because of the subject of lesbian romance, the film probably should have earned a PG rating as it’s good fun for the whole (liberal) family.
On the day of her wedding to Heck (Matthew Goode) Rachel (Piper Perabo) meets Luce (Lena Headey) the florist hired for her wedding. Rachel feels an instant connection to Luce and something more.

Truthfully we’ve already seen the “you can’t help who you fall in love with” film done many times and just recently with a gay slant (Brokeback Mountain). This film doesn’t really add anything new to the equation and the tone and pace of the movie is uneven as hell.

First days on the job can be hard, especially if you’re a spy. In Covert Affairs Piper Perabo stars as FBI Agent Karen Sympathy…wait, that was something else. Perabo stars as CIA trainee Annie Walker who gets thrown into the field for a special assignment. Christopher Gorham and Anne Dudek also star. Although the Pilot is a little rough in spots, I could do without the jealousy of Annie’s boss (Kari Matchett) to her husband (Peter Gallagher), and I’m still very much on the fence of the mysterious love angle, there’s definite promise. If you like the short clip take a gander at the rest.
