Spy show share quest
Hi everyone
I like TV spy series
My favorites are
Burn Notice -This show is great as it is not politically correct and it has good humor and very good plotting as there is always the sub-plot going on in every episode. I'm a guy ...so yeah Fiona is nice looking and sharp as a tack I like all these characters Michael, Sam Jesse and Michael's mom:
The Sandbaggers (British) - this is rare and dialogue based cold war stuff....and there really isn't that much action as it is more realistic spy stuff. But the dialogue is intriguing and the guy who plays the lead in MI6 is really a cool dude and very sly. You have to like apologetics a lot in this.
The Unit- I like this similar to why I like Burn Notice...lots of cover -up , covert black ops stuff, and if you have read special operations non-fiction books then you get hooked on it.
I am familiar with series by John LaCarre like "Tinker Tailor, Soldier, Spy" and "The Night Watchman"
Anything series you can recommend that I am not aware of? I tried The Americans- I lived in Russia and well I'm not convinced that any Russian can speak like a native speaker exactly like one , especially when they trained as a covert when they are older like in their 20's or 30's. Just not buying it.I understand a British being an American but not this. I may be wrong ...but it turns me off.
Chuck the spy guy - not interested
I started watching the series with Patrick MCGoon sp? but haven't continued ...black and white....I forget the name of it.
