The Recruit

This is a Bond spoof: more Roger Moore than Daniel Craig. Sorta like Chuck. The basic idea is that government agencies like Homeland Security, the CIA, ..., you name it are screwed up. Composed of conniving backstabbing individuals seeking advancement, concealing their motives, and covering their asses. To such a degree that our bumbling hero can do better despite being an untutored beginner, but with actual purpose. He bounces around from one acronym to another trying to decide what is going on. And pushed from all sides by those that are trying to make sure he will be tagged for any calamity and they will get credit for any success.

So it is a humorous take interspersed with rapidly moving events that are on the verge of catastrophe at all times.

It's an engaging and comedic take that only accidentally runs into reality. The final scenes are a set up for Season 2. And don't contribute much else.

You will decide quickly if you are up for this. Be assured that it carries on unflagging until perhaps the final scenes.
