    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The series seems outdated. Characters use dead drops - are they in the 50's?- never observe modern electronic protocols - checking personal phones for malware is a daily MUST. Miller is overall incompetent. As is Station chief -sending a defector back destroys reputation of Station and Agency not to mentioned the defector will be debriefed and whole defector apparatus will be in jeopardy as well as invalidating most of Intel obtained. I understand that character and personal dialogue is emphasized but this level of incompetency is like writing as Auto Racing series and having the cars fuel up with water. Oh , and 200 agents allow a middle age woman and three thugs to kidnap a trained agent in a mall? No snipers in Op or outside? really amateur hour. The acting is pretty good overall regardless. Ifans is brilliant in markedly contrast to Armitage. Whose performance is very stiff or perhaps the intent is to portray a character who has been lobotomized?.… Expand

    This is a spy series looking for someone or something to make you care.

    Berlin Station is a tense, terse thriller--good-looking but never fussy, balancing character and plot in satisfying proportions, a new suit cut to classic lines.
