I love, love, love Morena Baccarin. So, yes, I was a little biased even before I saw the first episode. But it was good. Fidgeting fell by the wayside and I was riveted by this con/action/crime/mystery series. "Blacklist" meets "Jack Ryan" meets "Nikita" meets "Killing Eve" ... I think (?) ... in this vibrant show. Baccarin plays an arms dealer/head of a mercenary army mastermind. She's a bad guy. Or is she? Clearly, she's killed and doesn't mind killing but there are hints of something greater. And that's the key. This is a mastermind who doesn't just look at the board in front of her, she runs the game. The first episode is non-stop action with an interwoven "fairy tale" and twists you will not see coming. Ryan Michelle Bathe is the Yang to her Yin and together they make every scene a fiery battle of wills. I can't wait to see what happens next.
