Diplomat Netflix (series, shows, actors, character)

I just finished watching this and it was excellent. Not as good as Jack Ryan, which is the gold standard of these types of shows. This one was a bit too talky but the acting was exceptional, Rufus Sewell (man in high castle)was a perfect co-lead. Keri Russell was good as well. The plethora of classically trained British actors and actresses really made the show. Acting in the UK is more of a craft vs anybody and their brother in law is an actor here. The surprise cliffhanger at the end made me want to watch the next season.

Hmmm.... I guess I need to go back, then. I stopped watching after a 3rd episode because it was a bit slow.

While I agree there was too much chatter.....I did very much enjoy this series.

Russell's character reminded me a bit of Carrie from Homeland. She is excellent in this as is David Gyasi.

For other pay for 'channels,' we've been watching Fatal Attraction and Love and Death. both pretty darn good.

Watched Love and Death, too.
Well made! Little bit with a twist ..
