The Bureau
A smart and stylish spy saga; The Bureau is based upon real accounts by former spies and is inspired by contemporary events. It focuses on the "Bureau of Legends", responsible for training and handling deep-cover agents on long-term missions in areas with French interests, especially in North Africa and the Middle East. Living under false identities for years, these agents' missions are to identify and recruit good intelligence sources. The series follows intelligence officer Guillaume Debailly, (Mathieu Kassovitz) codenamed "Malotru.”

I was hoping for a different ending where he escapes with some help and returns to Russia to his girlfriend. This serie had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. However I'm left with a sour note.
Sad to see it end. That’s the problem, so invested in a great show just wish it would gone on forever! Bravo to the actors, bravo!!!
Loved Loved this Series! I hated to see it end. All the actors did a terrific job,
My Five Stars *****. First heard of it from a real-life U.S. intelligence veteran talking on CNN. Said he was binge watching it. I was hooked. My own connection to it includes an overnight stay as a guest at the French Ministry of Defense in the family apartment of the head of French Military Intelligence. The Bureau is written by people who know this dark world. Great streaming television. Multiple languages with subtitles.
One of my favorite series ever. Too sad to discuss how they chose to end it.
