Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Some of the best action TV shows don't get the opportunity to act on their full potential due to unfortunate network cancelations. What makes a truly compelling action series is the balance between high-stakes and believable action with a substantial narrative.
Dark Angel follows Alba as Max, a genetically enhanced superhuman who is on the run from the government after escaping from a military training facility where she learned her fighting skills. Alba fully embodies the part, gaining attention in what is often referred to as her breakout role. As one would expect from such a character, there are plenty of combat scenes between Max and others.
However, balancing the abundance of action in Wayne is a dark, and oddly endearing, sense of humor and heartwarming scenes between the main characters. Sometimes, characters in an action series can be written as caricatures of the genre, coming off as empty characters audiences can't connect with. That's not the case with Wayne. Throughout the series' 10 episodes, the characters are fleshed out and full, making it easy for audiences to root for them.

Though Rome's ending came sooner than many would have preferred, the drama's two seasons earned much critical acclaim.
