Deep State

This initial episode does just about enough to get the audience hooked and wanting more. A good balance of back story and character building/relationship detailing to give enough knowledge around the theme with a good dose of action and suspense to keep you wanting more.

In typical short season (8 episode) fashion - we are left with a lot more questions than answers at the minute - but as the plot and story line develops over the coming episodes I'm sure these will be fleshed out for the viewer. So far the casting seems to be to be farily strong as well.. no complaints from me so far and looking forward to the next episodes!

I had originally given this series an "8", for the first few episodes, but I've just watched the rest of the season, and what a brainless mess!

Plot holes you could drive a Mack truck through everywhere, weak script, no suspense ie totally predictable/unbelievable, and a blatant, radical political ideology agenda message.

Why is it now that for US terrorism series now it's either their own government or the Brits that are the enemy, and for Brit series it's always their government or the US the enemy?! lol

PLEASE...please...no more! No season 2.... The entertainment world is polluted enough, without this garbage included...

Try to keep up with what's new , missed this one glad I found it by chance. If it keeps up to the standard of the 1st episode it could be a keeper . Mark Strong owns the character to the nines. Fingers crossed for the next instalment.

The writers of their show must hate their wives. The wife (Lynne Renee) is ever so annoying, continually to get Max (Mark Strong) into deeper troubles. Would have been much more pleasant to watch with the wife's role reduced.

The show is good, filmed good, with decent soundtrack and good acting, maybe not the best possible, however good enough. It is an interesting story for the first season with great twists, action scenes and outcomes. As for the second season, I think it is where the show gets closer to a cliches for that type of stories and some of the characters and their actions are a bit overexaggerated. Still, good enough, but to me is more like not necessary season and a weaker one, so that's why the combined score of the first and the second is 7 stars for me, I'd give 8 for the first, 6 for the second. And don't get me wrong, it is worth watching.
