Nailed it!
Great sets, great casting, plot captivating and easy to follow, great choreography fight scenes ...the essence of the books and movies!
No pc, no social agenda forced on us, no identity politics - that's extremely rare, these days with new series and movies!
Good job!

*YAWN*
This series had potential but really disappoints. They blew it by trying to cram little snippets of each plot thread into every single episode. It didn't give you any space to connect emotionally with the different characters.
That's what made the original Bourne movies work. It wasn't so much about the spy stuff or the fighting, something this show seems to misunderstand as it serves up gratuitous amounts of pointless hand-to-hand combat to the point of boring predictability. It was about our emotional investment in the tortured man and his story.
This show just doesn't give us any characters worth caring about. A more episodic format-with each episode focused on a particular character-could have worked better in this regard, but the the writing and acting quality would have needed to be turned up a few notches as well. As it is, Treadstone feels like B-grade Jason Bourne fan fiction, and I totally lost interest three episodes in.

great story but be prepared to be disappointed...
The last episode in no way gives a resolution to everything going on. finishes at least two episodes short. if they don't renew for a new season, we're all screwed!!!!
Really enjoyed but frustrating non ending!
The series was extremely good in my opinion not quite 10/10 top tier but one of the better action series around if a little predictable at tunes but just enough other twists to keep you guessing. Unfortunately however the series hasn't been renewed and the story did not conclude at all the most annoying thing when you get invested into a show! If you don't like that happening I'd give it a miss and save yourself the pain and annoyance.
Not for the impatient viewer
6 episodes in and the story is gradually unfolding. The character development is okay, giving a background to each cicada, with spicy action scenes. Although the show does jump between characters and time periods, it's not as impossible to follow as some reviews suggest. Feels like each episode should have been at least an hour long though. Can't wait to see how it all ends
