The first episode showed a lot of promise and I would give it a solid 8, but that's the problem with this show. Hooks you in and quickly just loses all its steam. There were some decent performances in season one but most of the actors were very hollow and wooden given the relevance of the subject matter and fictional people they portray. The script is exceptionally basic for an espionage thriller and at times the production value seems college film school level. But there are enough qualities and likable characters to plod your way through season 1. Not sure I would have green lit a second season if it was my call to make but there are worse things to watch.
