    You have to watch this, its great

    So as a 40 something, I have grown up in a time when JCVD was quite a star, never as big as Arnold or Bruce, more like a Rutger Hauer of the 90's.

    This show is a brilliant concept and plays out perfectly. Jean Claude is a washed up actor who is at face value plodding along minding his own business. Meanwhile unbeknown to all he is a secret agent.

    The show has a fascinating combination of reminding us of trade mark van damme moves and references previous movies in a laugh out laugh manner, at the same time it has a deeper inner meaning, which is in a way calling to the world to let Jean Claude come back to the limelight. Not as the tough guy but as who you see here, (If you watch it listen out for his last line in the last episode). It's clever, funny, entertaining and I hope to see more of this and also wish him all the best in getting new work that is this good.

    Great Production, Amazon Video Team: Please take note

    Dear Amazon Video,

    This (like "the legend of master legend") is a truly original production. Please don't screw this up. First of all, note the great successes of your competition (Netflix, Hulu). With productions like "Stranger Things," "11.22.63," and "Sense8," bringing back an actor with the reputation of JCVD is a great step forward for you. Even more, blending the roles between actor and character is a very ingenious concept.

    For the sake of retaining viewers, please give timely updates to when (or "if") your massive quantity of original productions will continue or be scrapped. Until I read the first review here on IMDb, I though this great concept (like many others) was scrapped in favor of unoriginal works (such as "The Tick" or "Good Girls Revolt") blatantly targeted for a specific viewer demographics.

    It's a relief to know that this series will resume airing 12.15.2017. Please make this announcement official.

    Thank you

    Enjoyed it ! Looking forwards to seeing more !

    I'll keep this spoiler-free, but whether you're a Jean-Claude Van Damme fan or not, you're in for a good time. It's labeled as a series, not a movie, but after that first episode, you'll be eagerly awaiting the next. It's top-notch! This is the JCVD we all know and love-no need for a "fighting" Van Damme, just a hilarious, entertaining one.

    This review is for Episode 1. I'll update it once Episode 2 drops (looks like December 15th-we've waited long enough, right?).

    9/10.

    He was one of the Heroes of my Childhood......

    This is a pleasantly surprising series.

    I was unaware (Until I watched the First episode of JCVD) how much I missed Jean Claude Van Damme. His peculiar style of Martial Arts was what got me mostly through my childhood. And I expected a little more of the stuff from the series, but as I said I was pleasantly surprised because it was more. It was Hilarious at times, swashbuckling with action at some times and very very Heart warming towards the end. All the characters were beautiful and perfectly acted. The Villain is fantastic and probably the most convincing in the role.

    Definitely a must watch for all the Van Damme Fans.

    Very disappointed that no more episodes

    So heartbroken that there are not more episodes or season two. I loved this show and so did my son. It was great on how he made fun of himself.
