Season 1 starts off slow but it then grabs and tosses you down this hill of brilliant writing and acting. Gary Oldman and Jack Lowden are nothing short of magic in their chemistry. This chemistry and storytelling charges all the way through season 3 and the show has remained captivating and even added an up-tick of action and suspense.

I love this show. These agents were put out to pasture yet unfortunately for their boss they continue to stumble into cases. The result is usually a fight to survive. Not your average spy thriller. Lots of humor and bumbling agents. And the seasons are short, which makes for a great binge.

This came highly recommended. What they failed to mention, is that is one of those, boring as hell, British spy dramas, that are somehow so popular in the UK. Season 1 was actually ok, but then followed Season 2 with it's totally uninteresting plot, and you couldn't give a rat's arse about what happens to the characters, as it's so badly written.
Then came Season 3, which is even more ridiculous, with it's lazy writing, ludicrous behaviours and far fetched storyline.

[tv+] A twist that balances humor and an ironic look at spy stories. Closer to American political thrillers than James Bond movies, it frames the action with a tone reminiscent of the 70s and 80s. And it has the rude and flatulent Jackson Lamb (hilarious Gary Oldman) as the main promoter of this group of outcasts. It's also a story about second chances and a political look at the resurgence of the extreme right.

The use of “right wing nationalist”, as the evil bad guy in the show. Is an obvious wink and nod to the ideologies and beliefs driving the writing, directing, and acting that’s permeating the entertainment industry.

The show is virtually thick with it.

Apart from that, it may actually be enjoyable to watch. But, I suspect the show - will inevitably be a flop when it’s looked back in on history after it’s run it’s course and the funding runs out.

I'm watching this for Gary, but let's be honest, he's almost just a bit actor in this show. You have to watch a few episodes to get into the rhythm of the show, but it's not bad so far. I do love the concept of the "cast offs" of MI6, it's a unique take!

Come for the Gary Oldman-led MI5 fuckups, stay for the infighting of an ultranationlist cell. too bad the themesong sounds like Jermain Clement doing a Mick Jagger impression as a bit. Still, I love every part of it!

Quick-witted? I'm not so sure about that. Gary Oldman is the strong horse of the cast and the "no-name" actors/actresses keep the story going. As for Kristin Scott Thomas, well, ever since she was made a Dame, she became lazy and sloppy, not to mention the ill choices she makes when choosing roles to play (I. e.: Mrs. Danvers in Rebecca). In this series, her performance is a weak sauce compared to her true potential.
The storyline is good, but I am not happy with the camerawork and cuts. Clumsy at best.

You may be surpised to learn that, whilst Jihadist plots used to be U.S. and Europe's biggest terrorist threat, nowadays it genuinely is from the far right: https://rb.gy/4hf4zy<br /> <br /> According to the Center for Strategic and International Studies, since 9/11 more Americans (335, ) have been killed by adherents of right-wing extremism than any other terrorist ideology.

@eclecticboogaloo <br /> &gt; According to the Center for Strategic and International Studies, since 9/11 more Americans (335, ) have been killed by adherents of right-wing extremism than any other terrorist ideology.<br /> <br /> wrong. blacks are **left wing** extremists.<br /> <br /> one of the latest of their anti-white murderous hate crimes has been the Waukesha Massacre. 5 white children dead. 40 other whites seriously injured.

@unambi So not only do you have pretty much zero actual understanding of left vs right wing politics, you also can't count. LOOOOL<br /> <br /> I see white supremacy is still attracting the real big brains, eh?.... Hahahahaaaaaa

Absolutely outstanding! First rate spy mystery/thriller, full of nail-biting tension punctuated by whip-smart dialogue with darkly sarcastic humour - the latter mostly c/o Oldman's understatedly spectacular Jackson Lamb. So good that I'm about to buy the book(s) by Mick Herron that the series is drawn from.
