I really liked this show and I hope more viewers take a chance and watch it so they give us another season or three. I haven’t read the book so I can’t agree/disagree with those reviews who thought this interpretation missed the mark entirely. What I can say is I binge watched the entire series this weekend and found it to be interesting and entertaining. The acting was well done and I liked that I had to read between the lines to figure out the big picture. Granted it didn’t take a lot of effort, and it reminded me of other stories (a little B5 Psi Corp and a little La Femme Nikita from the 90’s) but given I don’t watch a lot of tv I thought it was worth my time. Also, I watch tv for entertainment- and since I’m not a spy, nor do I think I know exactly how anyone or everyone would act in this completely made up scenario - I don’t feel the need to criticize a show for being unbelievable. It’s a story.
