The Secret Agent

This is an interesting period mini-season drama. Acorn dramas tend to below budget, and family friendly productions. This drama takes place in Victorian England in 1885. The acting is good, as are the costumes, and production values. The plot kept me involved, but the story is not so much a spy thriller, but more of a character study. The series' title would lead a viewer to think that the story involves a lot of spy drama and action. Actually, the story revolves around one character, with some police work and international politics. I think the series would have been better with a couple fewer episodes, or, could have been a full length feature film. Overall, the series is okay, and I didn't feel like it wasted my time. But I don't feel as though I would have missed anything if I hadn't seen it. For me, this is another "Meh" series.
