The Recruit (2022– )
9/10
Wonderful Tension & Much-Needed Entertainment
29 January 2023
This was truly a fantastic surprise. I went into this show as a fan of most of the cast and still didn't think this would push out any quality storytelling.

Obviously, I was wrong. The writers of this show deserve to pat themselves on the back with this one. The tension and suspense really fed my dopamine-addled brain and kept me entertained.

A large part of the sense of mystery comes from the average American(such as myself) having no insight into how the CIA actually works and what goes on behind the scenes. Obviously, that information shouldn't be leaked, but the show made it seem so realistic that it made an impressionable young person(me) think about the effects a government-sanctioned terrorist group could have(the CIA).

This was truly a wonderful production and I hope to see more like it in 2023. Fivel Stewart and Vondie Curtis-Hall really stole the show.
