Téhéran

A spy on her way to do her thing but things go awry. the lead actor, the spy woman is perfect at playing the intruder in Tehran. i care for the character she plays. but also the anty spy game is impressive. higly enterteining. watch it.

I had a very low expectation of the shows on Apple TV. Tried a few before, couldn't even finish first 10 minutes. I thought this will be the same, but I was wrong, totally wrong. The show was so intense from the beginning, no dragging at all. The premises of the show are very interesting. All characters's performance are awesome.

This is such a refreshing change from the usual spy stuff, which tends to be US/UK/RUS/CN centric. It's an Israeli production that presents a very even-handed view of the relationship between Israel and Iran.

The plot-lines have been really well worked through Seasons 1 and 2. The pacing is good and there are plenty of twists and turns along the way. I binge-watched Season 2 in ONE DAY!

Athens does a good job as a stand-in for Tehran, in terms of the atmosphere and architecture they capture. It's great that the participants all speak their native tongues, too, instead of all English or Israeli.

And while the whole cast does a great job, I give special mention to Shaun Toub (Faraz). He is simply fantastic. Toub gives us such a nuanced portrayal that we feel both repulsion for some of his actions and, yet, by the end, we are rooting for him to survive because we can see that, while he might be misguided at times, he's a man of honour.

Terrific series! Another Apple TV+ cracker!

As a Iranian I like this series.

It's shows the reality without uncensored It's one of best middle Eastern series!

The actors of this series speak in 3 languages and it's valuable Thanks to the director and creators of this series.

I really was expecting a lot of Anti-Iranian, pro-Israeli propaganda. What I got was one of the best spy thrillers I have seen in a very long while. Also, the characters are extremely well done, given the kind of show this is so, hats of to the writers and the actors for carrying it off so well. The little plot twists, when they happen, are also well done.

Another things is the treatment of the revolutionary guard detective/case officer, whatever his job title is. Just wonderful! At times, I even started routing for him. Basically, this series shows you that the world of espionage is a very dirty world.

The part when the hacker/agent dresses up as a man did seem a little ridiculous although, to be fair I have seen many Middle Eastern youngsters who are fairly androgynous, and the show was so good, that if that was the only slip-up, then it gets a pass from me. I really hope they do a second series, and judging by the ending, that looks set to happen.
