The sandbaggers was /fantastic/.

For those who don't know, it's basically accountancy with violence.




Yes, it's the best spy series together with the two BBC le Carré series.

Le bureau des légendes is also similar to these three and just slightly worse IMO, and that mostly because of the weaker final season and an accumulation of implausibilities roughly starting in the middle (more series have that than not, sigh). But, for the most part, flawless acting.

The Night Manager is cool, too, with a very satisfying ending.

The Little Drummer Girl is also good, though there is some... uncommon? psychological stuff going on in the book that creaks even more in the series.


I also have a soft spot for Intrigue: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095378/
