Synopsis
It’s a world of even deeper intrigue and subterfuge, in which characters fight their own battles against existential threats to the nation and the world.

In the opening credits, characters and walls from the series are presented interspersed with mirrored glass. Former CIA counterintelligence director James Jesus Angleton, also known as the “spy poet,” described the intelligence game as “The Wildness of Mirrors,” a phrase borrowed from a poem by T.S. Eliot called Gerontion (the name means “little old man” in Greek, and the poem is an internal monologue, reflecting the opinions and impressions of an elderly man who describes Europe after the First World War through the eyes of a man who lived most of his life in the 19th century). In the world of Reason, in search of truth, it is difficult to distinguish reality from its reflection, illusion, if you will, as if you were in the “Hall of Mirrors”.
Until now, nothing has been even remotely close to this
I have to say that I was lucky enough to watch “The Bureau” a couple of years ago, and to be honest, it’s probably one of the best things I’ve ever seen. There is a correlation between these two series, it was obviously mentioned that it was “influenced” by the way, but, to be honest, I did not expect such a plot. Don’t get me wrong, the series is amazing at the moment, great cast, good cinematography, but I haven’t seen this in the French version yet. It’s too early to say how it will turn out, but I strongly advise everyone who hasn’t seen “The Bureau” to watch it.
You won’t regret it
After Fassbender played a professional killer in David Fincher’s The Killer, and I saw that he was in the cast, I immediately knew that he was an excellent choice for this role. Series of this type actually require a certain concentration while watching, so that you can be aware of all the characters of the storyline and small details about them. It’s not something you’d watch while cycling on an indoor trainer. Someone would even consider them slow, maybe even boring, but it is the characteristics and complex personal battles that the characters have, plus the slow build-up of tension, that make them, in my opinion, remarkable.
