During dialogue with the Martian in the discussion with Dr. Blake, the acronym “OBE” is incorrectly explained as “Overtaken By Events.” In U.S. government agencies, including the intelligence community and the Department of Defense, the correct/official explanation for the acronym “OBE” is “Overcome By Events.” During the opening credits, characters and walls from the series are seen, interspersed with mirrored panels. Former CIA counterintelligence director James Jesus Angleton, also known as the “spy poet,” described the intelligence game as “The Wild Mirror,” a phrase borrowed from a poem by T. S.

On The Graham Norton Show: Cher/Keira Knightley /Michael Fassbender/Josh Brolin/Jalen Ngonda (2024). “The Agency” is a must-see for all fans of spy thrillers. First of all, the cast is simply great. The main roles are played by Michael Fassbender, Jeffrey Wright, Richard Gere and Katherine Waterston. This cast is reason enough to give it a try, and on top of that, it is a really good show. I wouldn’t be surprised if this show and the most actors would be nominated for some awards next season. The series is about a secret CIA agent (Fassbender) who is ordered to leave his secret life and return to the field with his ex-lover (Waterston), who he is still in love with. His love for her begins to interfere with his real life and his mission. If you are a fan of spy thrillers or good detective series, then give this one a try. You will not be disappointed.
