- QuizThe series' original cancellation in 2000 was due to a dispute between Wilson and the producers of the show over Wilson being offered the role of Jean Grey in X-Men (2000) and asking to be released from her contract early so she could participate. The producers refused and Wilson refused to renew her contract. It would appear, this had Peta Wilson blacklisted for the rest of her "Hollywood" career.
- BlooperIn the early episodes, Section would put a stick-up microphone/earpiece behind Nikita's earlobe, before leaving for a mission. This allowed her to communicate remotely with the base. As the series progressed, in further seasons, they didn't even try anymore; they couldn't be bothered to make it look credible---perhaps assuming viewers took that for granted---and the whole "sticking the silver circle behind Peta's earlobe" was given up. Then the production took their audiences for granted. The actress would just speak her lines as Nikita, while the visuals showed she had absolutely nothing behind her ears. The same for other remotely-speaking characters on a mission. Audiences were apparently expected to suspend disbelief, whenever Nikita was then whispering sans microphone/earpiece while out---often in a loud location such as a nightclub or party, which made no sense whatsoever---and her words were expected to be somehow magically relayed to Berkoff or Michael.

Recensione in evidenza
It seems that one genre of film has rarely been successfully translated to tv: The spy film. Can't think of one off the top of my head--except the cartoons like Lancelot Link and Danger Mouse. I suppose in the sixties--Man From Uncle, Mission Impossible.
But here comes La Femme Nikita, a very stylish show, no question, with a certain ruthlessness about it that seems cold and dangerous. Everyone in it seems to adequately convey the sense of dangling over a precipice, waiting for the stark harsh powers to send them to their doom. But until then, they combat various and sundry international terrorists.
While the acting never really rises above adequate--the dialogue really doesn't allow it, the characterizations themselves are rather enjoyable. Megalomaniac Operations, icy Madelaine, zombie like Michael, etc. There's a certain menace that hangs in the air, as if even humanistic Nikita wouldn't hesitate to put a bullet in you were the situation to require it.
I'm not suprised this show draws a devoted following--probably some who put it in the same late nineties genre of women wandering around beating the hell out big bad men (see VIP, Xena, Buffy, etc) But it's rather a bit more than that, the plots are routinely more complex than most spy movies--the last few James Bond movies in particular, maybe they could donate a few writers to the cause in bringing some life in that series.
The endless maneuvering for advantage, the incredible withering amorality, the sudden violence ... and don't forget the clothes, all give this a pretty slick, sexy feel to it. Like a very shiny, glistening new gun--lethal, but undeniably attractive.
