Ever since the dawn of the golden era of prestige television in the latter stages of the 1990s, HBO has been synonymous with ambition, impact, and storytelling perfection on the small screen. While the premium network has produced everything from acidic comedy satire to post-apocalyptic dread, piercing real-world drama, and even high-concept fantasy, there is no denying HBO’s identity is ingrained in its proven ability to master the grit and gripping intensity of crime television.

While it is rare for any series to go through its entire run without producing a single dud episode, these five crime shows achieve that feat by constantly prioritizing character and narrative, maintaining focus throughout the whole stretch of their tenures, and operating with razor-sharp thematic precision from start to finish. From pioneering long-form series that were instrumental in ushering in television’s golden age to viscerally impactful miniseries that treat every one of their episodes with the craft and care befitting of a cinematic release, these crime series never once falter, and they stand enshrined among HBO’s greatest ever achievements because of that.

‘The Sopranos’ (1999–2007)

Six seasons and 86 episodes. That is quite the tenure for any show, and while anyone would forgive a series of such scale having an occasional misfire or an episode that doesn’t quite land, The Sopranos never falters once in its considerable journey. The defining spearhead of prestige television drama, and an ageless icon of HBO magnificence, the crime series follows New Jersey mafioso Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) as his struggle to navigate the cutthroat complexity of his professional life and the spiraling nature of his family environment lead him to begin attending therapy sessions in secrecy, where he dissects his own thoughts on his experiences, and the world, and his line of work with Dr. Melfi (Lorraine Bracco).

Regardless of whether episodes are tackling the gangland tensions of Tony’s life, the volatile nature of his family dynamic, covering the experiences of his colleagues, or even prying deep into his psychology through dreamlike vignettes of surrealism and poetry, The Sopranos executes every narrative idea it has quite perfectly. The thematic sharpness of David Chase’s writing is paramount to this, as is the brilliance of the ensemble cast and the compelling tonal shifts that allow the series to oscillate between extreme violence, profound depth, and even hysterical comedy on a whim.

‘Sharp Objects’ (2018)

It would be easy to think that a miniseries has less of an ordeal to make every episode a masterpiece of television drama, given how contained the overall run is compared to longer, more expansive series. However, there have been plenty of limited series over the years that have stumbled at some point along the way, particularly slow-burn crime mysteries that need to extract suspense and simmering drama over the course of 6+ hours. Despite having a total runtime of more than seven hours across its eight-episode run, Sharp Objects never once loses momentum or drops the ball regarding its magnetic intensity and the sickening depth of its character study.

Based on Gillian Flynn’s novel of the same name, it follows crime reporter Camille Preaker (Amy Adams) as she returns to her hometown to investigate the murder of two young girls, only to find herself having to confront demons from her own traumatic past as well as the shocking inhumanity of the crime. Investing heavily in a gloomy Southern Gothic atmosphere, Sharp Objects is able to capture an eerie, pervasive feeling of dread, a quality that works beautifully in tandem with its meticulous pacing. As the series goes on, this commitment to establishing the tone of the setting pays dividends, especially as the ugly truth behind the crimes begins to unfurl. With every second of screen time thriving as a transfixing, nightmarish descent into the depths of human depravity, Sharp Objects is a rare example of a truly perfect miniseries that remains faultless from its opening scene to its shocking final moments.

‘The Night Of’ (2016)

Another masterful miniseries that also stands as one of the most underappreciated television productions of any genre throughout the 2010s, The Night Of excels as a gripping crime epic that delivers a scorching indictment of the legal system while incorporating elements of police procedural suspense, courtroom drama, and a bleak glimpse of life behind bars. It revolves around Nasir Khan (Riz Ahmed), a Pakistani-American arrested and tried after he wakes up next to a murdered girl he was partying with. While his claims of innocence are largely ignored, jaded defense attorney John Stone (John Turturro) agrees to represent him.

The eight-part limited series finds tremendous strength in its drive to continuously evolve its story, offering different perspectives on the case, shifting between a desperate Nasir and his panicked family, the story the cops and prosecution understandably believe, the media frenzy that engulfs the case, and the vicious life lessons Nasir is exposed to in Rikers Island as he awaits his trial. Able to examine all this while wrestling with the gigantic thematic idea of institutionalized racism and maintaining an air of suspense and uncertainty regarding Nasir’s involvement in the murder, The Night Of is a masterful mixture of grueling mystery tension and piercing character drama that delivers eight episodes of unyielding cinematic depth.

2

‘True Detective’ (Season 1) (2014)

Image via HBO

Viewed by many as being the greatest single season of television the medium has ever seen, True Detective’s first installment is the pinnacle of slow-burn atmospheric suspense in crime television, one that was so impactful that it shifted the style of the subgenre on the small screen from frenetic, fast-paced thrills to agonizing, methodical tension. Anchored in the brilliance of Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson’s lead performances, it follows two detectives investigating an occult killer in rural Louisiana, focusing on three pivotal times in the case between 1995 and 2012. In addition to delving into the horrific nature of the crimes, the season also invests heavily in the complex personal lives of the officers.

With all eight episodes benefiting from the consistency of Nic Pizzolatto’s writing and Cary Joji Fukunaga’s direction, True Detective Season 1 runs with a sense of unity and holism that makes every piece feel interconnected, even when it’s jumping around timelines and reveling in the enigmatic depths of its central mystery of death, power, and conspiracy. From the palpable dread of its opening episodes to the creeping unraveling of the mystery, through to the emotional impact of the eighth and final episode, every second of True Detective’s first season offers gripping drama and invigorating gravitas that, despite its grim narrative and brutal intensity, is always a treat to revisit.

‘The Wire’ (2002–2008)

Image via HBO Max

Quite possibly HBO’s greatest ever production, The Wire isn’t just a ceaselessly engrossing crime epic, but a sprawling dissection of a city’s societal ecosystem that investigates everything from the hierarchy of the drug trade to the nature of the police force, the shifting priorities of city hall, and even the institutionalized pitfalls in everything from journalism to the public education system. From the tight focus and attention to detail of Season 1’s emphasis on a small police unit’s efforts to gain evidence against the Barksdale drug operation to the all-encompassing eye of Season 5’s expansive drama, The Wire excels at capturing both the intricacies of a city’s crime infrastructure and the sheer scale of the operation.

Armed with an unrelenting commitment to documentary-style realism that makes every outburst of violence, every shocking revelation of corruption, and every essential character moment land with dramatic gravitas, the series captivates viewers throughout every second of its five-season, 60-episode run. With its intense exploration of systemic rot, bureaucratic process, and the complex morality of both law enforcement and organized crime, The Wire never once missteps or errs in its story, and it delivers what is possibly the most important TV series of all time, especially considering the poignant agelessness it holds 18 years on from its finale.

Washington Irving‘s The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is a classic American Halloween tale, although the holiday is not mentioned in its pages; in fact, Halloween wasn’t widely celebrated in North America until long after Irving’s death. Nevertheless, the short story’s eerie and autumnal vibes have made it a seasonal favorite. Now, another interpretation of the tale is in the works, with Sydney Sweeney attached to star and produce; and while you wait for it to emerge from the darkened woods, another classic adaptation is now available to watch for free.

Hollow is a new take on the tale, based on the debut novel by filmmaker Lindsey Anderson Beer (Pet Sematary: Bloodlines), which is set to be released in the spring of 2027. Beer is adapting and directing her own novel, which will center around Katrina Van Tassel (Sweeney). A resident of the upstate New York hamlet of Sleepy Hollow in the late 18th century, Van Tassel finds herself being auctioned off for marriage to settle her family’s debts. Two suitors emerge: the brash Brom Bones and the intellectual Ichabod Crane. She soon finds herself in a love triangle, which is complicated by the hellish Headless Horseman, who’s begun lopping off heads left and right. Hollow is currently in development, and has not yet begun production.

While you wait, however, you can see the revisionist Irving adaptation that set the stage for Hollow, and you won’t lose your head over its cost. Sleepy Hollow, Tim Burton‘s Gothic interpretation of the story, is now streaming for free on the ad-supported streamer Tubi. Johnny Depp stars as Ichabod Crane, a detective who’s been dispatched to Sleepy Hollow to investigate the spate of beheadings that’s bedeviling the small town. He falls in love with local Katrina Van Tassel (Christina Ricci), only to learn that she’s connected to the true culprit: the Headless Horseman (Christopher Walken), an undead Hessian mercenary who’s at the beck and call of a mysterious puppet master.

What Were Tim Burton’s Influences for ‘Sleepy Hollow’?

Burton, who began his career as a Disney animator, had a connection to the source material: One of his teachers during his Disney days had worked on The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad, the studio’s beloved 1949 animated adaptation of the story. As the movie was shot in England, he also used it to homage the horror movies of Hammer Films, casting Hammer regulars like Christopher Lee and Michael Gough.

Sleepy Hollow is now streaming for free on Tubi. Stay tuned to Collider for future updates.

A Spider-Man suit worn by Andrew Garfield during the production of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 has found a new owner, and the final price is surprisingly affordable for a piece of superhero movie history.

The costume sold at auction for just $2,650, before the addition of a 25 percent buyer’s premium. The auction closed on September 1.

While that might sound like an absolute steal for an authentic Andrew Garfield Spider-Man costume, there is a reason it didn’t command the six-figure price sometimes associated with screen-used superhero memorabilia.

The suit was a production-worn practice suit rather than one of the hero costumes featured on camera in the finished 2014 film.

Garfield wore the costume during production for rehearsals, stunt preparation and camera blocking. Practice suits allow actors, stunt performers and filmmakers to plan complicated action sequences without risking damage to the considerably more expensive costumes intended for principal photography.

That distinction dramatically affects its value to collectors, but it doesn’t change the fact that the costume was actually used during the making of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and worn by Garfield himself.

The relatively low price becomes even more surprising when compared to another famous Spider-Man costume.

In 2025, a Spider-Man suit associated with Tobey Maguire and used during the production of Spider-Man 2 and Spider-Man 3 sold for approximately $289,000, far exceeding its original $100,000 to $200,000 estimate.

Garfield’s Amazing Spider-Man 2 costume remains particularly popular among fans. The redesigned red-and-blue suit introduced in the sequel moved away from the look of Garfield’s first film and delivered a design much closer to Spider-Man’s traditional comic book appearance.

Garfield starred as Peter Parker in The Amazing Spider-Man in 2012 and The Amazing Spider-Man 2 in 2014 before eventually returning to the role alongside Tom Holland and Tobey Maguire in Spider-Man: No Way Home.

For one collector, $2,650 was enough to own a genuine costume worn by one of the three live-action Spider-Men. It may not have swung across the screen, but considering its connection to Garfield and the production of The Amazing Spider-Man 2, it’s still a pretty remarkable piece of Spider-Man history.

Stevie Nicks’ younger brother Christopher Aaron Nicks has died after a private cancer battle. He was 72.

“It is with a broken heart that I announce the passing of my father, Christopher A. Nicks, early this morning, surrounded by family,” Aaron’s daughter, Nixi Parkinson Nicks, wrote via Facebook on Saturday, September 5, confirming her father’s passing one day prior. “Some of you may know that he spent the last 2.5 years battling a cancer diagnosis, and to some this may come as a shock. If this is news to you, please know it was because he never wanted people to worry about him that he kept this to himself.”

Nixi, who her father shared with his ex-wife, Lori Perry-Nicks, a former backup singer for his famous sister, continued, “I know that he has left his mark on so many people, and this will leave many more than his immediate family with a piece of them missing. I know I speak for my dad when I say that his friends, his lost boys, meant the world to him.”

She concluded her announcement by speaking to her late father directly, writing, “Rest easy, Coach. We will see you in Neverland.”

Steve Nicks and Christine McVie instantly connected when they joined Fleetwood Mac. “To be in a band with another girl who was this amazing musician – [McVie] kind of instantly became my best friend,” Nicks said in a February 2022 interview with the New Yorker. “Christine was a whole other ballgame. She liked hanging out […]

Nixi also confirmed her father’s passing via Instagram, sharing a black-and-white photo of the devout daughter holding her dad’s hand as he appeared to lay in bed.

“Second star on the right, and straight on til morning,” she captioned the emotional post. “I love you daddy. Rest easy. “

Christopher was Stevie’s only sibling. The legendary Fleetwood Mac singer, 78, has not publicly addressed her brother’s passing at the time of publication.

Mick Fleetwood, Stevie’s former bandmate and legendary drummer, shared a tribute to Christopher via Instagram on Saturday in the wake of his death.

The passing of Chris Nicks has brought so many memories of his amazing life.. Much of course was shared connected to Fleetwood Mac..” Mick, 79, wrote alongside a throwback photo of the brother-sister duo. “His zest for life will be a forever beacon of inspiration! Chris you will be missed by me and I know the Family of Fleetwood Mac. Peace and love.”

Christopher’s ex-wife, Lori, commented on her daughter’s Facebook post announcing his death and sharing her own tribute to her forever coparent.

“Beautifully said my angle. And as the mother of a very dear friend of Christopher’s said… ‘He loved life!’ and no doubt he lived it to the fullest… Following his own rules!!!” she wrote in the comments section. “We will all miss him, in so many ways… He was an anomaly.. And they certainly broke the mold when they created him. There will never be another one like him…. I miss you already, RD…”

As NCIS continues to air, fans of the series are all missing the void left by the most iconic and important character from the show. At the conclusion of Season 19, Leroy Jethro Gibbs, the supervisory special agent played by Mark Harmon, bid farewell to the agency with a retirement to idyllic Alaska. The significance of this departure could not be understated: Harmon was one of two original regular cast members to complete 19 seasons and was the foundation around which the rest of the show was built. Gibbs first appeared in the backdoor pilot for NCIS in 2003 as part of the JAG series and has appeared in every season since.

Although Harmon’s position as leader has been replaced by Alden Parker (Gary Cole), the show doesn’t feel quite the same. Shows that have aired for so many years are destined to evolve, but sometimes those changes aren’t for the better. So with a drastic change for such a renowned and popular series, it begs the question: should the series have ended with Gibbs’ departure?

The Special Agents Were Always the Most Important Characters in ‘NCIS’

NCIS and other crime procedurals have always been familiar with rotating and dynamic casts, but have always been reliant on a strong foundation of special core members. Given the episodic nature of the show, there are few recurring villains, which makes the antagonists of the series a far less memorable feature of the show. This puts an even greater burden on a strong cast of protagonists who help keep the series consistent and engaging over countless seasons. Gibbs was there from the beginning of the show and served as the grounding force to keep the series true to itself. He may not have been the only agent in NCIS, but he was the one who made this version of the series as memorable as it was. He had a gruff, unreadable exterior atop a loyal and virtuous heart. It was Gibbs who spearheaded the rest of the team, pushing them to maximize their potential by leading by example on how to get the job done.

Jethro Gibbs Was the Leader Who Set the Tone of the Flagship Series

One of the defining features of the NCIS franchise is the variety of demeanors between its characters across different spin-off series. There are definitive tone setters for each version of NCIS, and for the original series, that job was handled by Jethro Gibbs. NCIS: LA is set in Los Angeles, so the team interrogates suspects in a boathouse, is based in an open-air Spanish-style building, and features a former LAPD liaison as one of their prominent characters. Compared to the original, their characters are more laid-back and casual. This NCIS is based out of Washington D.C., a setting of paramount importance to the national safety these agents are meant to protect. Jethro Gibbs was the leader of that team for two decades and was the only character on the show who could truly embody everything that made the original NCIS unique to its spin-offs.

Gibbs’ character was the textbook definition of an NCIS agent— or at least the perfect version of an agent for viewers to engage with. He was incredibly effective in his job but had little patience for bureaucratic nonsense. He was patient with his squad, but held them to high standards and showed little weakness. He had a complex, tragic past but forged ahead to make sure justice was attained. The layers and depths of Gibbs set the tone for the intricate, engaging narrative arcs and relationships. He was not only the leader of the team but the backbone of the entire series.

Is Gibbs Coming Out of Retirement?

However, saying that Gibbs is the only important member of the DC-based team would be doing a disservice to Timothy McGee (Sean Murray), who has been a series regular since its second season. Characters like Nick Torres (Wilmer Valderrama) and Jessica Knight (Katrina Law) have both found a place in the hearts of fans since their arrival in Season 14 and Season 18, respectively. Although NCIS has found some stability since the departure of Gibbs, the franchise still seems to be missing the rudder that kept the show focused for so long.

Thankfully, for those who want more of Gibbs, NCIS: Origins follows Gibbs’ early life as an agent, with Austin Stowell playing his younger self. Though the show still follows Gibbs’ past, Season 3 of Origins has confirmed that Harmon will be featured prominently in the show. Showrunner David J. North hinted that after everything that’s happened, Gibbs might be coming out of retirement. And with the events of the present day confirmed to be tied to the events in the 90s, perhaps Gibbs’ departure from NCIS is no longer a permanent one.

Kelly Osbourne has finally opened up about how she really felt about her weight loss after the death of her father, Ozzy Osbourne.

The TV personality admitted she looked like “the crypt keeper” and that it was hard for her to understand the criticism being directed at her due to the pain of losing her dad.

This comes weeks after Kelly Osbourne shared that she’s taking a break from the “madness” to focus on herself.

Kelly made some candid remarks about her stunning weight loss after the death of her rock legend father, Ozzy, at the age of 76 following a cardiac arrest.

During a chat with the Daily Mail, Kelly revealed how she went as far as donning a wig that would hide her cheekbones during her public outing due to how lean she had become.

“I looked like the f-cking Crypt Keeper,” the actress stated. “I said, ‘This is scary. I didn’t know I looked like this.’ My spine — you could see every single bone.”

Kelly continued, “I couldn’t see what other people saw because I was in so much pain. I just saw a broken person.”

Speaking about hiding her facial features during her 2026 Grammy Awards outing, she noted, “I wore a wig to cover my face, so you couldn’t see how skinny my cheekbones really were.”

The Reality TV Star Believes She Shouldn’t Have Attended The Event

Kelly noted during the interview that her stylists took note of her struggles and tried to dress her in ways that would make her look less skinny.

“They knew I was going through something. So, we were trying to find clothes to not make me look skinnier,” she said.

“I was scared,” Kelly continued, noting how she likely shouldn’t have attended he music event. “I wanted to be there to support my mum and to pay tribute to my father’s legacy. But in all honesty, when I reflect on it, I don’t think I should have gone.”

“I wasn’t very well,” she added about her Grammy Awards attendance.

Speaking more about the impact of her father’s death, Kelly stressed that she shielded her son, Sidney, from the pain she felt and would always put on a cheerful attitude whenever he was in her presence.

“Whenever he walked in the room, something would come over me, and I’d snap into Miss Fun Mum,” she stated. “I didn’t cry in front of him; I’d walk out of the room. I always made sure that he was not exposed to inappropriate sorrow.”

Kelly Osbourne Talks Stepping Away ‘To Breathe’

Kelly’s candid interview comes a few weeks after she shared a stunning photo of herself relaxed on a lounge chair in a leopard-print one-piece swimsuit while soaking up the sun.

She reclined with both arms resting behind her head and one leg crossed over the other, exuding effortless confidence.

A second photo offered another look at the same poolside moment, with Kelly leaning back against the lounge chair with her arms at her sides and her blonde hair swept back.

The former reality star explained that going on the vacation was an opportunity to detach from the demands of everyday life.

“I’m really learning how important it is to step away from the madness sometimes,” she wrote on Instagram. “I get so wrapped up in life, work, people, plans… everything going on around me, that I genuinely forget I’m allowed to stop. To switch off. To breathe. To just be.”

Kelly’s caption depicted a newfound perspective on the feeling of refreshment and relaxation.

She wrote, “This holiday has reminded me that taking a break isn’t wasting time – sometimes it’s exactly what you need to come back to yourself.”

“I honestly feel reborn. Lighter, calmer, happier… and very much NOT ready to go home,” she expressed further, adding a laughing emoji.

Kelly’s carefree vacation photos were celebrated by fans in the comments, with several commenting on her cheerful and refreshed look.

“Your dad is smiling watching you get your sparkle back,” one person wrote. Another commented, “Wow !!!!! You are stunning !! You look so happy and healthy!!!”

Kelly Osbourne Seems To Have Broken Up With Sid Wilson

Kelly’s time away also included a heartwarming moment with her 3-year-old son, Sidney. In one photo, she cuddled her son while aboard a boat. The mother and son smiled with Sidney’s arms wrapped around her neck.

Sidney is Kelly’s son, whom she had with Slipknot musician Sid Wilson in 2022. However, the couple is said to have broken up, though the news hasn’t been publicly confirmed by either of them.

In August, the TV personality intensified the rumors about their relationship when she shared a series of Instagram Stories, which have since been taken down, that appeared to take aim at Wilson, though she never mentioned him by name.

“Wake the f-ck up and take some responsibility. I will not take your sh-t anymore! I’m done. I want to be happy, and I have a beautiful son to raise. Leave me alone. Let me heal. I can’t protect you from yourself anymore,” she wrote.

Kelly later appeared to have made reference to unresolved issues involving their son, finances, and her belongings. “Also, while I’m at it, can I have my dogs back and all my possessions? Oh yeah, and maybe some child support?”

Sid, for his part, has not shared any posts that allude to the end of his relationship with Kelly.

Kelly Osbourne is opening up about her dramatic weight loss following the death of her rock legend father, Ozzy Osbourne.

“I looked like the f***ing Crypt Keeper,” Kelly, 41, told the Daily Mail in an interview published on Saturday, September 5. “I said, ‘This is scary. I didn’t know I looked like this.’ My spine — you could see every single bone.”

She continued, “I couldn’t see what other people saw because I was in so much pain. I just saw a broken person.”

The Black Sabbath frontman’s family confirmed his death on July 22, 2025, shortly after his final concert and a public battle with Parkinson’s. He was 76.

“It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning,” the family’s statement read at the time. “He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.”

Kelly broke her silence shortly after her father’s death, calling the rocker “the best friend I ever had.”

“I am so sad,” she wrote via her Instagram Story two days after her father’s death.

Concern regarding her thin frame hit a fever pitch when Kelly appeared alongside her mother, Sharon Osbourne, her brother, Jack Osbourne, and her ex-fiancé and former SlipKnot keyboardist Sid Wilson at the 2026 Grammys to honor her father’s legacy.

While speaking to the Daily Mail, Kelly admitted that she was afraid to appear publicly given her weight loss.

“I wore a wig to cover my face, so you couldn’t see how skinny my cheekbones really were,” she revealed, adding that she was worried the attention she knew she would get would distract from her father’s tribute.

“They knew I was going through something,” she continued of her stylists, who she says also purposefully dressed her in a wardrobe that would flatter — and in some cases hide — her body. “I was scared. I wanted to be there to support my mum and pay tribute to my father’s legacy. But in all honesty, when I reflect on it, I don’t think I should have gone. I wasn’t very well.”

Kelly previously slammed online commentators who accused her of using GLP-1 medications to lose weight in the midst of her grief.

“I don’t even know how to say this, so I’m just gonna say it,” Kelly said in a video shared during her mom’s appearance on a December 10 episode of Piers Morgan Uncensored. “To the people who keep thinking they’re being funny and mean by writing comments like ‘Are you ill?,’ or ‘Get off Ozempic,’ [or] ‘You don’t look right.’ My dad just died. And I’m doing the best that I can, and the only thing I have to live for right now is my family.”

Paramount+’s streaming chart is always dominated by Taylor Sheridan‘s TV empire, and the first week of September has not been much different. His hit espionage thriller Special Ops: Lioness is back for an even bigger third season that has been building quite a fanbase between Season 2 and 3, and now everyone has tuned in, pushing it to the top of the streamer’s global chart. Other Sheridan staples like Yellowstone, Dutton Ranch, and Tulsa King are also on the chart. South Park remains the biggest threat to Sheridan’s Paramount+ domination, but some shows like Criminal Minds and SEAL Team are also seeing significant interest. But one of the most resilient shows on Paramount+ is a two-season spy thriller that has not relented since its premiere over two months ago.

This sleek drama debuted in 2024, and critics’ reception was mixed, earning it a 66% score on Rotten Tomatoes. However, viewers seemed quite impressed, and the show gained a sizable audience throughout its 10-episode first season. It was renewed for a second season, which premiered two years later on June 21, with all episodes available to stream. Critics and viewers considered the new season of The Agency a significant improvement, with scores of 92% and 93%, respectively.

The Agency Season 2 kicked things up a notch by expanding the story. It featured a sweeping narrative spanning multiple continents while keeping the core conflict at the center. The series’ return pushed the show to the top of the charts, and while it has dropped from its peak position, the show has remained a consistent performer throughout. It has been one of the most-watched shows on Paramount+ over the last week, ranked eighth by FlixPatrol at the time of writing. Unlike with Season 1, Paramount+ has not released the official viewership numbers or renewed the series yet.

What Is ‘The Agency’ About?

The drama is a spy thriller set in the CIA’s London station. It features a cast of celebrated performers, led by Michael Fassbender as an undercover agent who has just returned to his post after years undercover when the story starts. His official name is Martian, but his return comes with a secret: Martian fell in love while playing someone else. The conflict expands as he tries to hide his attachment to a target, and things get worse when other parties learn of the connection and seek to exploit it. The series also stars Jeffrey Wright, Richard Gere, Jodie Turner-Smith, John Magaro, and Saura Lightfoot-Leon, among others.

All episodes of The Agency are available to stream on Paramount+ in the U.S. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
