During dialogue from Martian in discussion with Dr. Blake, the acronym "OBE" is incorrectly explained as "Preceded by events". In US government agencies, including those in the intelligence community and the Department of Defense, the correct/official explanation of the acronym "OBE" is “Overcome By Events”.. The opening credits introduce the characters and scenes from the series, littered with mirrored glass. Former director of counterintelligence at the CIA, James Jesus Angleton, also known as “the spy poet,” described the intelligence game as “The Desert of Mirrors,” a phrase borrowed from a poem by T.S. Eliot called Gerontion (the title is Greek for “little old man”) and the poem is an internal monologue relating the opinions and impressions of an elderly man who describes Europe after the First World War through the eyes of a man who lived most of his life in the 19th century). In the world of intelligence, in the search for truth, it is difficult to distinguish between reality and its reflection, an illusion, if you will, as if one were in the “Hall of Mirrors.” The Graham Norton Show: Cher/Keira Knightley/Michael Fassbender/Josh Brolin/Jaylon Ngonda (2024). The Agency is a must-see for any spy thriller fan. First, the cast is absolutely amazing. It stars Michael Fassbender, Jeffrey Wright, Richard Gere and Katherine Waterston. This cast is reason enough to give it five tries, and on top of that, it’s a really good show. I wouldn’t be surprised to see this show and most of the cast nominated for some awards come awards season. The series follows an undercover CIA agent (Fassbender) who is ordered to leave his undercover life and return to the field with his ex-lover (Waterston), with whom he is still in love. His love for her begins to interfere with his real life and his mission. If you’re a fan of spy thrillers or a good mystery series, give this one a try. You won’t be disappointed.
