the quiet seriousness of true artists having a blast creating art.

Question: Do you know the reason why the titles of Covert Affairs episodes were taken from David Bowie song titles? For example, the last episode of the season was titled "Lady Stardust." Just very curious as I could not see the connection. DK
Matt Roush: Here's an explanation from executive producers Matt Corman and Chris Ord: "Each season we pick a band we love, and name the episodes after their song titles. We try to pick song titles that fit the themes of the episodes, but sometimes they're just songs we love!" (According to the show, Season 1 was Led Zeppelin, Season 2 was R.E.M., Season 3 was Bowie, and it looks like Season 4 will be the Pixies.).
