    A very bland, cheap British copy of Homeland and other Middle Eastern spy shows. Nothing new under the sun. Can be watched when you have exhausted any other option and/or drunk.
    PS: Annoying to have fake French, fake Persian and even, lol, fake Texan accents in this day and age. Hence the need for alcohol.

    Too much of Deep State is bogged down in shallow family characterization, and very few of the assortment of bureaucrats, field agents and generic Middle Easterners register as distinctive either. The only reason to watch the show is Strong.

    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.

    “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.
