Deep State

Sits nicely with the breed of high standard spy shows like The Bureau, Homeland, Counterpart, Night manager etc

Perhaps a quick pump it out lower budget version, but still very entertaining.

Wife's a b!tch and the older daughter drove me nuts. Cant say I liked the wife's brother either. Needs a shave and hair cut

Densely intricate, multi layered spy thriller. The pilot looks great, if they can keep this up it should be compelling tv.

The writers of their show must hate their wives. The wife (Lynne Renee) is ever so annoying, continually to get Max (Mark Strong) into deeper troubles. Would have been much more pleasant to watch with the wife's role reduced.

This initial episode does just about enough to get the audience hooked and wanting more. A good balance of back story and character building/relationship detailing to give enough knowledge around the theme with a good dose of action and suspense to keep you wanting more.

In typical short season (8 episode) fashion - we are left with a lot more questions than answers at the minute - but as the plot and story line develops over the coming episodes I'm sure these will be fleshed out for the viewer. So far the casting seems to be to be farily strong as well.. no complaints from me so far and looking forward to the next episodes!

This is really great series to watch. It's actually scary how governments and business shady businesses are intertwined and can instigate wars. With this being a fiction, there is, I'm afraid a lot real elements in it. Entertaining and yet horrifying to watch.
