Operação Lioness

Special Ops: Lioness had me hooked from the very first episode. This is another great series by the mastermind that is Taylor Sheridan (Yellowstone, 1923, 1883, Mayor of Kingstown, Tulsa King, Landman, etc). I would watch this series if I knew nothing more than Sheridan created it. Then add in the fact of all the star power starring in it...Zoe Saldana, Morgan Freeman, Nicole Kidman, Michael Kelly, Genesis Rodriguez, etc. While this isn't the best show from Sheridan, it's still very entertaining and worth watching. Yes, some of it's unbelievable but if you can just turn your brain off and enjoy it for what it is you'll have a good time watching this. The only negative so far is that you have to wait a week between episodes, I like it better when they release the whole season at one time so you can binge it.

Well what can I say?

Just binged both seasons back-to-back, and you're in for a treat! "Lioness" is a gripping blend of action, drama, and emotional depth. The storytelling is sharp, and the characters are complex, drawing you into their world of high-stakes missions and personal struggles. With incredible performances and intense pacing, it's a must-watch that keeps you on edge throughout!

If you're a film junkie like myself then you'll appreciate the time and effort that Taylor Sheridan and everyone else put in to make this happen.

I enjoyed it. Not my place to say where it could have been improved. It is what it is.

Thank you.

Great espionage genre show with exceptional writing. Strong performances from leading characters with a sprinkling of Sheridan here and there.

Initially I thought it would be a corny show but it's anything but that. Season 1 is serious, all business with realism and some complexity in the main character.

Also, here and there this show highlights the bigger picture of the reality of the situation in the Middle East. Wrapped in fictional characters and strong performances if you're listening the messaging is clear. Sometimes what may seem like the obvious moral truth is wrapped in a sea of complexity and greater consequences.

I was hooked episode one as the show navigates through the lives of a small few defending their personal lives and upholding the honor to their country. It's conflicting, motivating,painful, beautiful, heartbreaking and more all one episode after another with heart stopping action. It's what Yellowstone is for ranchers, it's the heartbeat to the CIA through a small window. I started initially and wasn't able to really pay attention. Round two 15 min in I knew I made the right decision to come back to it. After serving you get a small understanding of how much you really don't know but makes you proud just still knowing what's being done for you while most sleep. Highly recommend for anyone who loves a great plot, death, amazing acting and fast paced action.

I've put off watching this for a while and after finally catching up it's been utterly brilliant. Seems that some are not so keen which I don't understand. A powerful group of woman doing an incredibly difficult job at great personal expense. Can't wait to watch Season 2 which seems to have had much better reviews. Zoe Saldana as ever is outstanding especially when balancing her work and personal life but the big reveal is Oliveira. Her rage seeps through the entire show making her such a captivating character. I can't wait to see what she does next. Hopefully this will be renewed for Season 3!
