Maggie Q as Nikita

Maggie Q stars as Nikita in this television action series about black opts and rogue agents. I am impressed by her acting and am proud that finally an Asian has a leading role in an American television series. Well half Asian anyway as her mother is Vietnamese and father is Irish and Polish. I can still remember when all Asians in movies and televisions were portrayed by Caucasians. Remember David Carradine as a Shaolin monk in Kung Fu?

From wiki on Nikita

Nikita is an American television drama for The CW Television Network. It is based on the French film Nikita (1990), the remake Point of No Return (1993), and a previous series La Femme Nikita (1997). Nikita premiered on September 9, 2010.

The series stars Maggie Q as Nikita, a spy and assassin who has gone rogue. She is now working to bring down Division, the secret government agency that recruited her. Meanwhile, Division trains its next crop of young killers.

Nikita is worth watching and Maggie Q wardrobe change is interesting reminding us that she is also a professional model. The series is like Alias + 24.
