Review: 'The Agency' Season 2 on Paramount+ — A Competent but Unremarkable Spy Thriller
By
Joel Keller
Summary
A review of The Agency Season 2 on Paramount+, a spy thriller series starring Michael Fassbender, Richard Gere, Jeffrey Wright, and Jodie Turner-Smith. The show is based on the French series 'The Bureau' and follows a CIA deep cover team trying to root out a mole while searching for a missing agent. The review notes that despite a stellar cast, the show is merely "fine" — not terrible but nothing special — and questions whether the second season has distinguished itself from other espionage series.

· 3 pulledIt's always disappointing when a show with a cast as stellar as the one in Paramount+'s The Agency premieres and the show ends up being… fine.
It's not terrible, but it's also nothing special, either.
With the second season underway, has the show distinguished itself from other espionage series?
