The Night Agent S2 (9/10)

by Tony Medley

10 Episodes, Netflix

TV-MA

The second season of The Night Agent is even better than the first, and that’s saying a lot, since my understanding is that the first season was Netflix’s highest rated show. Peter Sutherland (Gabriel Basso) returns as a vastly more experienced agent, going rogue after the harrowing first season.

His love interest, Rose (Luciane Buchanan) assumes a more active role in his dilemma. And his handler, Catherine (Amanda Warren) joins in fighting the dangers despite a mole who seems to be betraying them.

Added is Noor (Amanda Warren), who becomes a reluctant ally as she worries about the welfare of her family in Iran. Noor’s presence in what appears to be the Iranian Embassy is a troubling faux pas in that Iran does not have an embassy in the United States.

Despite that Noor’s presence adds a compelling B story to that of Peter’s, complicated by his apparent untrustiness due to the allegations that his father was accused of being responsible for a major leak from the Pentagon. Embedded in the tale are the romantic relationship between Rose and the dubious trust between Peter and Catherine.. So each episode pulsates with tension among all four protagonists.
