The Agency

I must say that I was lucky enough that a couple of years ago I bindge-watched The Bureau and to be honest is probably one of the best things I have ever watched. Nothing up until this point was even remotely close to it. There is a correlation between the two series, obviously it was mentioned that it was "influenced" by it, but tbh I wasn't expecting similar storyline. Don't get me wrong, the series up until this point is amazing, great cast, good cinematography, but it wasn't something I haven't already seen in the French version. It's too early to say how it will turned out to be, but I highly suggest to anyone who hasn't watched the Bureau to watch it. You won't regret it. After Fassbender played professional hitman in David Finchers movie The Killer, and I saw he was in the cast, I immediately knew he is a great choice for the role. Those type of series actually require certain amount of concentration while watching them, so you can keep up with all the characters in the storyline and the little details about them. It's not something you would watch, while riding your bike on the indoor trainer. Some would even consider them slow paced, maybe even boring, but exactly those characteristics and complicated personal battles that the characters have, plus the slow buildup of tension, is what makes them great in my opinion. Those type of series you either love them, or you don't like them at all, there isn't a middle ground.
