This is a recreation of a fictional computer program from the excellent Apple TV show - Severance.

The work is mysterious, and important.

Season 2 is going now. It’s one of my top 3 shows of the last decade, highly recommend it.

“The Americans” doesn’t get enough love as one of the top shows of the past decade.

The darkness sneaks up on you. The people who start out seeming like James Bond characters end up carrying the full intolerable weight of their lies and destructive actions. People who looked like side characters are followed up with entire life stories in the shadows.

The Bureau is an even better spy show IMO though I loved both. Something about how low key and realer The Bureau feels makes it more intense. It felt like The Wire to me though completely different shows.

The Bureau is excellent. One of the few shows where the hacking is relatively realistic (as opposed to magic to advance the plot). The Wire is an apt comparison.
