Plot: Peter Sutherland (Gabriel Basso) in a globe-trotting mission across Istanbul, Mexico City, and Washington to expose a deep-state conspiracy. He investigates a dark-money network and a corrupt White House, involving President Hagan, First Lady Jenny Hagan, and a lethal broker.
I was so looking forward to this season.
Season 3 of The Night Agent was great.
Pros: This season was thrilling, mysterious & emotionally heavy. It feels like a soft reboot to me at times. I enjoyed a lot of drama, conspiracies & backstabbing betrayals throughout. Isabel De Leon works as a new female companion to Peter Sutherland. I like how Stephen Moyrer’s the father character ended up with a happy ending. Most of the acting was really good and I felt weight when the twist and turns happened.
Cons: No sign of rose anywhere to be seen. The story did take a while to get going for me at the beginning. I wasn’t a fan of how they delt with Jacob Monroe’s demise and how much blank of minutes there was for each episode.
