O Agente Noturno

It's a watchable series, but you'll have to forget everything you know about...

• Security and safety, video surveillance, etc
• Guns and handling them
• Any rational decision making
• How police and military works
• How agents and other highly trained people operate work, move, and secure areas
• Etc

And I'm not talking about you being an expert on these things, just that you understand even some basics or have seen any other series where actual, trained people have participated in advising how to write the scene or how the actor needs to move in a particular area (hint: not in the middle of the street if you want to hide).

Simply put, you'll have to think like an under-10-year-old kid.

I liked the actors, though, hence 4/10 instead of 2-3/10.

A lot of nonsensical plot holes, disjointed and formless story lines thrown together in a blender. Clearly not based on a book like season 1 but rather a tv writer effort to leverage the original. I kept watching in spite of it. It's not terrible but there are much better other spy thriller shows. Some notable standouts for acting were Javar and Solomon and Peter. The women in this series to me were portrayed as weak, emotional and frail. Too stereotypical. Everytime an obvious solution was presented they meandered down a new weird fork in the road. Watching this required a lot of patience but I didn't have anything else to do so...

Season 1 was enjoyable enough. Season 2, however, descends into stupidity, particularly after episode 7. It's plagued by poor, often immoral decisions, inconsistent character development, illogical plans, and a distinct lack of realism and plausibility. The characters' actions often feel amateurish, even childish at times. The acting is uneven, with some particularly weak performances (notably Rose, Chelsea, and Dr. Wilfred). Furthermore, the dialogue frequently comes across as pretentious, often eliciting laughter or annoyance rather than the intended effect.

While the season does offer some well-executed action sequences and a few surprising plot twists, and a few times evokes the feel of Homeland, as the season progressed my only desire was for it to end.

Season 1: 8/10 Season 2: 4/10.

The thing that made season 1 good was that the story and the action kept the story moving along. It was intriguing, interesting and compelling. I watched the first season in 2 or 3 days and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Season 2 is the exact opposite. Lots of pointless dialogue that doesn't move the story along. Lots of repeated conversations. Too many characters that have no purpose. Lots of talking. Little action. I am 4 episodes in and feel like I am now trying to get through this. Forcing myself to stick with it. Pretty much everything that made the first season good is missing in the second season.

I binge watched the first season and really enjoyed it. Season two, however, is a huge letdown after watching season one. The first season was really believable and the story line was a real cliff hanger. Unfortunately season two is not credible. Rose is a total hindrance and pain in the butt. She does nothing but distracts Peter and is very needy. So the poor guy needs to look after her in season two as well as season one. It was credible in season one, a pain in series two. I sincerely hope she will not be in season three. Season one easily deserves an eight however season two is more like a five.
