This show was a pleasant surprise. Without knowing the lead, I started watching based on the trailer alone (nice job on the trailer xD) and I just kept watching. Unlike many shows that sacrifice character building for action, or vice versa, this show managed to balance these well. The tension was tight enough to keep me needing to know more, but time was also taken to show that the characters were human, with all the baggage - both good and bad - that goes with that fact. At the end of episode 10 (completed a day after having begun episode 1), all I wanted to know was: How long do I have to wait for season 2?

Why so many comparisons to the original movie when it's a series ?. condor hooks you in from the start and is unpredictable throughout. Enjoy it for what it is.

In the TV Category, I give this a 10 and that's how this show should be rated. This is not some summer blockbuster they spent a 100 million on and it's way better than a lot of the TV shows out there of this genre. Having spent most of 30 years watching all the popular TV shows of the past I feel that the series so far deserves a watch. I put in the 1st episode at the end of the night just to check it out and wound up staying up until 2am watching ep01 and ep02 and yes Brandon Fraiser's acting is a little hard to watch which I don't understand because he used to be a better actor in the past but he doesn't have many parts so we can overlook that.

Some other reviewer wrote: The plot is tedious??? The plot is the same plot that is in every terrorist about to take over the world series on TV and a lot of movies. Nobody CIA analyst discovers a threat to the nation and bad guys want him dead and of course there is already plants in the government that cover up the intel and paint a target on the good guy so that all the police want him too for murders he didn't commit so now he's on the run to save the world. Kinda sounds like Jack Bauer right?

I cant speak for the rest of the episodes until they come out but do yourself a favor and watch the first two and see if your not hooked. If you liked Blacklist, Shooter,The Brave, Seal Team or Taken, you will like this.

Surprised...... !

Surprised over the fact that some of the people are still stuck in those action drama that is more of the flare and fantasy world while in this series the whole story sounds genuine rather than complete BS.

Without giving away the story line, just wanna stress here that the story gives 1) a fresh outlook of things with 2) just the right pace and 3) covers every aspect of the waves that any event creates in a persons life.

Acting is decent, suspense in the story keeps it real enough.

This series comes from some seriously BIG production studios thus the stage set up for each action scene and camera work along with editing is just make it worth watching.

Among all the recent action TV Series out there this year, glad to find this one in the shadows.

Excellent old school thriller , good story , good acting , well made , what more do you need !!!!

I really enjoyed the first season of Condor, it has everything I enjoy in a TV series, action, suspense, plot twists, great acting and character development. If you like spy thrillers then this doesn't disappoint.

Season 2 however is more of a slow burn, there is less action than the first season but more suspense including a few twists and turns, it does however ramp up towards the end of the season and left me feeling satisfied.

I do hope the show is renewed for a third season.

Season 1 was great and I couldn't get enough. On episode 4 now season 2 and it's nothing like the first. Soooo sloooow ... They should have kept this as a mini series. ..

I've never seen the film or read the book but I loved this series it just never let up high pace from start to finish plenty of twists and turns along the way and genuinely kept you guessing. Already excited for season 2. Only improvement would maybe have been an extra episode as the second half of the last episode did feel a little bit rushed to me personally but it still didn't ruin the episode or series as a whole. Certainly worth watching!

As a fan of the original movie starring Robert Redford and Faye Dunnaway, I started watching this with some apprehension hoping that the story was not treated too badly like other great movies that have been turned into TV series. Not many TV Shows that are based on movies or books that have been made into movies compare well. So far this does a pretty good job.

This review is written after watching 2 of the 10 episodes of the first season.

Max Irons is no Robert Redford and may never be, but he has done a reasonable job so far. Katherine Cunningham is pretty good and Leem Lubany looks good for her part and I have to assume she has taken the part played by Max von Sydow in the movie.

Much has been changed, but enough is the same to for me to want to see more and I will be watching to see the rest.

Like the film, a mid-level CIA analyst, stumbles into the deepest reaches of dark operations, which results in all of his co-workers being killed. Not only is he on the run, but his boss, is convinced that someone in the CIA has to be responsible.

So, there are endless conspiracies and the villains are a bit on the nose. It isn't turn off your brain dumb, but it isn't gritty realism either. Although the show looks very slick, especially in the beginning, the script towards season finale falls into every amateur trap you can imagine. After all, this is an adaptation of an adaptation, so something definitely was lost in translation.

Promising start, average ending.

6/10 ... just because of William Hurt.

Best thing on TV for a while. Really enjoyed it. Looking forward to a second season. Really wish some of the first season cast could have remained, but look forward to meeting some more.

I believe when it comes to any dramas, I have a great eye for the good series to the incredible dramas.

I am STUNNED by the negative reviews pertaining to season two. While I REALLY feel this series deserves a 9, I cant get past or forgive the writers for being overzealous not substituting the Russians. Yeah sure, some scenes spoken in Russian you can get a feel for with the context surrounding the scene, but with most, you are just watching Telemundo.

However, the reason s1 is a solid 10 is because these same writers, that have wrote respectful series before, wrote the hell out of it resulting in EVERY episode captivating.

It felt so fresh. A new breathe with what we've become accustomed to watching. The characters are written beautifully in this series but the BEST attribute to this shows depth is it's all out for EVERY character being killed etc.

Not many showrunners have the guts that this series does having NO PROBLEM killing off important people that you will care about. All shows that consist of this kind of fearless writing are most likely excellent shows.

The twists and turns, of course but again, a fresh breathe at how they capture and execute everything so flawlessly, more so s1.

S1 is a 10. S2 in all honesty is no where near as bad as people are saying. Sure, everything is subjective but please listen to me and watch this series because you will be lost for three days in a binge attack.

Only problem is unfortunately not a good platform picked this up, despite its wonderful production, audience network sucks ass bc many people, most, do not have access to it bc why would you. Their best series are Kingdom, one of my personal fav series, and Condor.

William Hurt was brilliant as always and Max Irons is a savage and the new modern day Ryan Phillippe. Incredible acting across the board.

This series is amazing please dont miss out!

Dang I hate when they give a great show a short season then make you wait a long time before it picks up again. This has everything a good thriller needs. I could tell you all the good stuff but I don't want to ruin it for you.

Finally....a suspenseful, edgy series that serves up a really entertaining, edge of your seat thriller, and it's on television! I am a great fan of the original movie, and Robert Redford was fantastic in the original. This made for television series is never meant to replace or duplicate the original. But it has done a great job of capturing the suspense and plot twists of the original, but expanding the storyline to turn it into a series. From the first episode, I was hooked, and really have looked forward to each new episode. I just watched tonight's episode and it did not disappoint! The acting has been good, the writing and production qualities have been better than most of the shows and even the motion pictures that I've seen in a while. I never post ratings, but had to make an exception for this one, as it is worth praise!

I rated Season 1 with 7 stars and Season 2 with 5 stars, so a 6 overall.

Whereas Season 1 was taught, well acted, and an engaging story line, Season 2 was predictable, dumbed-down, and for some inexplicable reason, lead actor Max Irons (Joe Turner), who was very good in Season 1, started overacting in Season 2.

Also, it is ludicrous that Reuel Abbott (Bob Balaban) would still be with the CIA after what he did in Season 1! Although Balaban is always interesting and a compelling actor.

Season 2 also suffers from the departure of William Hurt (Bob Partridge).

The other problem I had was with the character of Gabrielle Joubert (Leem Lubany). We have often seen this type of character come out of a Hollywood writer's room. A character that is always at the right place, at the right time. Always ahead of the rest of the very smart people. Untouchable. Uncatchable. A product of very fortuitous timing. Boring!

I also thought Sam McCarthy (Sam Barber) was a real find, with a promising future.

Max Irons is as good as his father, this series keeps you so much interested and hooked, sincerely hoping for a second season.

As I have said very often, a series must keep all its episodes in the same quality to be excellent. Here the first 5 episodes are good, then small tumble, damage, too improbable and inconsistencies compared to the beginning of the story where everything seemed to go very well. But the series lets itself be watched anyway, we will still notice the great performance of William Hurt. Max Irons, good there is better but it goes anyway, on the other hand Leem Lubany in cold and expeditionary soulless woman, she was perfect, good the scenario did a little too much with her ... kill everyone at the fine and alone, it is a little too easy and makes the series not very credible in the end, but that will not take away its good performance.

Intrigue. Excitement. Mystery. Action. I may be overrating this, but it's at least an 8. So much better than 95% of the stuff on TV.

Watch the first episode. I guarantee you'll watch the second.

Like too many TV thrillers they pad the run time with dialogue that does not contribute to the plot. Hit men discussing the philosophy of what they do. Characters who have already established dislike for each other, doing it again. Lingering shots of people feeling something, but the script and acting give no indication of what that might be. Dull and lengthy Family interactions. I like plot with a bit of character development. This has a fine plot but character development is people looking out a window or pacing. William Hurt is a great actor. He makes even the mundane interesting. But the other actors need something to be actually going on to be compelling. Record this so you can skip ahead 10 seconds at a time to get past the parts that you don't need to watch.

Its a really good and intense show. Just a few flaws, like The little hitman"girl" Who aint beliavable at all, rest of the actors are doin OK. Gettin silly to put females to be The worst killers/murderers in every show, pathetic actually... Otherwise a good show

Way better than a lot of the crap on tv now. It will be interesting to see where the writers take this storyline beyond the novel's time line.
