Some people say that it is fun, witty, and action-packed, while others say that it is repetitive, unrealistic, and boring. What do you think? Do you recommend it or not?

It very much follows the USA format (White Collar, Psych, Monk, etc.), especially similar to White Collar:

Ridiculous premise, most episodes are standalone and formulaic, a couple seasons at the beginning and end of each season are about the season’s story arc and are generally weaker. Later seasons get more into the increasingly silly arc and it starts to drag. But overall it’s a lot of fun.

USA shows in general make good bedtime shows IMO.

Yea, I was gonna say something similar. If you liked those USA network shows, then you'll enjoy this. I love Psych and Monk, so I'm all about the shows of that channel/era
