Intelligently written with deep characterization, coherent storytelling, and impeccable acting and directing, I just can’t say enough good things about this show.
Some good decisions, mostly to reinvest thoughtfully in references to season one (even as the tone has markedly changed for season two) pay off this week.
I predict the final two episodes will have several shots of Cassie being posed for the camera in similar settings to accentuate Amanda Schull’s beauty.
“Fatherland” was a suspenseful espionage episode set at the height of the Cold War era as the Berlin Wall is being built, and it is one of my favorite episodes of the series.
It’s interesting that this episode is about people living together in a “now” that is made more poignant because of what was, what is, and what may never be.
