What a clever show! The characters have real charisma and chemistry: especially true of the relationship between the two ambasadors. The plots are gripping, believable, and timely, and the humour often made me laugh out loud. Intelligent, crackling scripts make the usual violence seem crude and irrelevant. The show is not cynical nor is it naive; but it makes one believe that people trying to make the best of a lousy system can make things somewhat better, and I like that.
