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?

The formula is basically:

Michael wants to investigate his main mission for the season
Someone wants him to do something else instead
He chooses to do the other thing
Final thirty seconds of the episode is the main mission

Exceptions for the last episode or two of each season where he actually does focus on the mission.
