It doesn’t matter if you are an OG fan from the 1980 or just know of the Rebooted Versions. I love the fact that this time around the lead is Woman. The role of the Secret Agent is almost exclusively played by a man forever. It’s nice to see someone abolishing the old Gender Norms. As for where to watch the show. You can watch the show either on the CBS Channel or on the Channels Official website. As of now, no other Streaming services house the show.
