I read some of the books first, but Gary Oldman is so utterly, utterly perfect as Jackson Lamb that when I last read one I couldn't help but hear Oldman's voice whenever Lamb had. aline. The TV show is so well cast.
Its surprisingly good. My wife and I have watched shows together for years as a decompression method at the end of the day. Most times these days its limited to like 1 show a night.
Unfortunately I am usually tasked with finding new content when we end something. There are times where I or she loses interest and it just becomes something for either of us to watch in our spare time. But I try to keep that rare.
Our rule is 4 episodes before we did. This one....hoooked in the first episode. Got me for the disgusting fart humor (I didnt even recognize oldman), got her with the normal spy/cop/agent things she lies.
