Piper Perabo an Under Cover Girl for Covert Affairs tease

Most people thought the USA network was messing with fool’s gold with the spy comedy Covert Affairs, which drew instant comparisons to Alias, but the sparkly stuff apparently turned out to be the real deal as the Piper Perabo show gets ready to start its second season.

TVLine revealed the Season 2 promo, which features Perabo looking cute and sexy at the same time, and features the tagline, ‘Under Cover Girl,’ and yes, I’m pretty sure the double meaning is definitely intended.

The new season includes all the elements viewers love. Perabo’s Annie Walker continues to look adorable as she does the CIA thing and her handler, blind ladies man Auggie, is expected to play a larger role this time around, with a little more background being provided on him. However, I’m keeping fingers crossed that the whole ‘mental chess game’ thing going on between married agents Kari Matchett and Peter Gallagher falls into the background because the marital/Agency power-play is getting kind of old.

Covert Affairs returns to USA on Tuesday, June 7th, at 10/9C with the episode, ‘Begin the Begin.’
