J K Simmons, who never appears in enough film & TV work for my liking, and Sissy Spacek give exemplary performances in a series that does not rush the story and creates enough intrigue to keep you engrossed. I really enjoyed their comfortableness with each other and you would swear they had spent decades in each others company.
Without giving anything away, I would definitely recommend this series and I hope there is another series soon.

US thriller/crime/action/war series & films are becoming an embarrassment of storytelling. The nadir should have been Heartbreak Ridge (if not before) where the invasion of Grenada is to be immortalised, time and time again US cinema with embarrassing timing pump out pro US propoganda disguised as 'hard hitting' critiques of anti democractic regimes. Here we have an average tale about counterfeiting, by Venezuela. Utterly unbelievable, no wonder Hollywood is in decline resorting to comic book exploitations to survive. Thank god for foreign cinema.
When I think of 12 Angry Men & One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, I see an empire in decline.
This series is OK if you expect nothing, you won't be disappointed. I can only surmise the current high rating is due to home support.

As somebody who has suffered a stroke this year (2022) from a bleed on the brain, never ill & healthy as a bull, the fight to regain thought process & use of arm is far bigger than any other battle in my life. This film simply lays out the challenges faced after the bell has gone. Superb, yet again, from Considine, a man who excels in front & behind the camera. A benchmark film, never afraid to delve into the simplest of struggles without the Hollywood urge to glorify or sex it up. As always in life the simplest solutions are usually the best.
For me obviously a very emotional experience as I am fighting my own way back. I cannot hold a pen, use a PC mouse & simple tasks take ages & a severe cause of frustration.
On the plus side I am lucky enough to have the NHS & it's heroic staff, who excel despite the Government of the day, not because of it.
