American citizens knew beyond a doubt that there no spies here in U.S.A. We where wrong. Yes just a TV show BUT the show is loosely based in truth, not much truth but truth none the less. Great acting and the continuity is real good

This has to be the best and the most underrated show. It's complicated, compelling, dark. It is the most underappreciated show on TV. Watch one episode and it's all over. You are hooked my friends.
