Anyone else watch this? I'm on the second to last episode. Really like it up to now.

Basically it's a spy infiltration drama starring loki and that guy from house.

He's no jason bourne, this is a more realistic spy hero.

I think I could kill him with a rolled up copy of the NY times. But I could do that to anyone not named jon jones or Dom cruz

I was listening to a podcast yesterday and they talked about how much they liked this show. Gonna binge watch it this weekend.

Might check it out. Haven't heard about it.

 

[IschKabibble]

Looks like it'll be airing in the US on AMC starting on the 19th. Will have to check it out.

If any of you see a John le Carré book buy that shit and read it in large chunks. I only saw one episode of this seems good.

A frog named Cornish man, I believe, former MI5/6 can't remember which. The best spy books out there IMO, not that I've read loads but I read his.

Anyone in particular I should start out on?

The first I read was "A most wanted man", they are all linked to the current climate at the time they were wrote. That's about a Chechen rebel who washes up in Germany and his dealings with a English man who owns a small private bank, any of them are worth a go though. Characters pop up in different books but they're not sequential so you can start anywhere.

Edit- Seriously get one it won't disappoint.

The mission song is another good one about the Congo, based around an African language interpreter.

They're class man, the characters are all human not like Bond types, it feels very very real.

I just finished the first episode. Pretty good so far. I've decided I am Loki, Splinty is Dr. House, and you're the chick that works for the international enforcement agency. I think she was the female cop from Hot Fuzz. All subject to change upon further viewing.

Great series reminded me of Roger Moore Bond.
