Watch a world of even deeper intrigue and subterfuge, with characters fighting their own battles while facing existential threats to the nation and the world. Check out our renewals and cancellations list to see if your show The Favourite has reached its limit… the way a case officer becomes an agent (or an informant or confidential informant) is by using the acronym MICE, which stands for: MoneyIdeologyCompromise (aka Blackmail)Ego. During the Martian dialogue while talking to Dr. Blake, the acronym “OBE” is incorrectly explained as “Overtaken by Events.” In U.S. government agencies, including those in the Intelligence Community and the Department of Defense, the correct/official explanation for the acronym “OBE” is “Overtaken by Events.” The opening credits feature characters and scenes from the series interspersed with mirrored panels. Former CIA Counterintelligence Director James Jesus Angleton, also known as the “spy poet,” described the intelligence game as “the wilderness of mirrors,” a phrase borrowed from a poem by T.S. Eliot called Gerontion (the Greek title means “little old man”) and the poem is an interior monologue relating the views and impressions of an elderly man, describing Europe after World War I through the eyes of a man who lived most of his life in the 19th century. In the world of Intelligence, in search of truth, it is difficult to tell the difference between reality and a reflection of it, an illusion if you will, like in a “Hall of Mirrors”… Featured on The Graham Norton Show: Cher/Keira Knightley/Michael Fassbender/Josh Brolin/Jalen Ngonda (2024). The Agency is a must-see for anyone who loves spy thrillers. First of all, the cast is absolutely incredible. With Michael Fassbender, Jeffery Wright, Richard Gere, and Katherine Waterston. The cast there is reason enough to give it a try, and on top of that, it is a very good show. I wouldn’t be surprised to see this show and most of the cast nominated for some awards come awards season. The series tells the story of a CIA agent (Fassbender) who is ordered to leave his undercover life and return to the field with his ex-boyfriend (Waterston) who he is still in love with. His love for her begins to interfere with his real life and mission. If you are a fan of spy thrillers or a good detective series, give it a try. You won’t be disappointed.
