CIA operative Joe tries to balance his personal and professional life as the spearhead of the agency’s war on terror. Real-life military advisors helped create a more authentic execution of gun handling, house clearing, positioning, action-based squad action, etc. Featured in Premios Soberano (2024). I waited 4 episodes to really immerse myself in this for a longer period of time. The goal was to give myself a chance to appreciate the gift given to us by the numerous A-list actors who contributed to the creation of this work, which, by the way, is enjoyable and appreciated by many despite mixed reviews. Many viewers have been told stories from a similar angle, but this perspective here remains exciting as you deal with a confusing but well-interwoven plot with the main female roles, each of whom reliably captures our attention whenever they appear. Halfway through, we can’t say whether this sense of urgency as we discover more and more of what’s going on will remain at the level it is now, but given the subject matter covered, the budget, and the talent pool with which they’ ve managed to bring this to the screen, it’s going to be hard to miss landing, largely due to the series’ solid foundation.
