CIA trainee Annie Walker is suddenly plucked from the inner sanctum of the agency and promoted to field operative, and while it seems she went from obscurity to the fire because of her exceptional linguistic skills, something or someone from her past may be the reason her bosses shifted her career path. Now that Annie finds herself on assignments with no rules or training to guide her, all she can rely on is her intuition ... and the guidance of CIA military intelligence agent Auggie Anderson, a one-time special operative until he was blinded during a mission. Auggie helps Annie navigate the intricate CIA bureaucracy, and he quickly becomes the one person she can trust.

Please let there be a sixth season of Covert Affairs. I need to know if Annie wears a gun under her wedding dress. Go to Full Review Melinda Houston Sydney Morning Herald 06/14/2017

Full of implausibilities, but engaging all the same. Go to Full Review Paul Dailly TV Fanatic 01/03/2019
4/5
Episode 16 was for the most part, a low-key season finale. The writers did really well bringing a lot of stories to a potential close. It was a bit worrying that the wrap-up didn't kick in until the final 10 minutes. Go to Full Review Samantha Kaye TV Equals 09/27/2016
This season of Covert Affairs is going to be the first one without a Henry Wilcox storyline, and I couldn't be happier. Go to Full Review Laurel Brown Zap2it.com 09/27/2016
The evil terrorist forces of the world are obviously ready, considering the explosive nature of the episode. Go to Full Review Carla Day TV Fanatic 04/06/2016

06/04/2020 The series is based on the histrionic interpretation of the main actress and her blind partner, which makes it predictable and boring. The plot is the same as that of all series of this type (i.e. Jack Ryan, another junk). The fact that there is a bit of criticism is appreciated, what happens is that it is so little that it does not have relevance. I do not know if the screenwriters lack imagination or is that production does not allow them to use it. In any case, it is not worth wasting time with such nonsense, when there are much better series to watch. See more 08/22/2019 Love the characters on this show. Joan and Arthur are adorable. I wish this show continued! See more 08/29/2016 Thankfully the twisting & ratcheting of the tale ends before resorting to pixie dust or flying dragons. Many scenes are easy on the eyes, still. See more 06/11/2015 If you are a fan of he Boune trilogy/Fair Game, Season 5 is a step above Season 4. More action, faster pace and beautiful cinematography! More bonus materials too! See more 07/02/2014 Loving the new season of Covert Affairs. McQuaid (Nic Bishop) is a great foil for Annie's seriousness...and he's got some great lines. Hope he stays on. See more 06/25/2014 Both a strong season-long conspiracy as well consistent character development make this the series' most serious and tension-fueled Season yet! See more Read all reviews
