action-adventure television show that ran fromSeptember 9 2002 untilMay 17 2004 , in two seasons. The show was sold into syndication but the first four episodes premiered on theNBC network, whose syndication arm was one of the producers. Disappointing ratings during the show's second season led to its cancellation after season two ended. "She Spies" bore noticeable production and directive similarities with "Charlie's Angels ."Plot
Three female convicted felons who were incarcerated for electronic crimes ("DD"), con tricks ("Cassie") and battery ("Shane") get paroled out of prison in exchange for work as secret operatives for the US government. In addition, the trio has to answer to a special agent in charge of success of their operations and of making sure that the terms of their conditional release are consistently abided by.
Comedic and chick flick elements
"She Spies" had very strong comic and
chick flick elements which in many instances proved even more relevant to the storytelling than the spy-related situations and gadgets themselves. The type of humor changed markedly from season one to season two, with the former containing much self-referential humor and breaking of the "fourth wall", while both these elements were removed in season two.Cast
