Season 1 Review:
“Deep State” and “Next of Kin” both offer mystery and suspense, and you could be drawn to either out of a taste for international intrigue tied to current events. For gunfire, cynicism and a constant build toward world-shaking revelations, go with “Deep State.” ... You can’t go wrong with Mr. Strong.

Season 1 Review:
The production has an appealing natural finish to it, enhanced by scenes that play largely or wholly in French or Arabic. ... There are enough action sequences, realistically staged, to maintain the genre cred--a fight here, a rooftop chase there--but for the most part the show runs efficiently, and not hastily, on suspense and character.

Season 1 Review:
Deep State lards its story up with new faces, names, and conspiratorial connections without ever giving us a glimpse at the man at its center. The action is great fun and the show looks good, but there’s little to grab onto even as one knows the show ought to be getting incrementally more “tense.”

Best spy thriller I’ve seen in years. Excels where others fail. It moves quickly through plot and leaves more time for character development and emotion. It feels exciting and real at the same time. Beautifully shot and incredibly acted. Also a very important story.
