Traitor/Patriot
2022 · TV series · documentary · 50 min episodes · 1 season
What motivates someone to betray their own people? To be disloyal? Money? Ego? Idealism? Traitor/Patriot unravels the intricate stories of people who committed espionage against the countries or companies they were meant to protect. Each episode tells a different tale of betrayal, analyzes the secretive methods utilized by the traitors to accomplish their missions, and how intelligence agencies outsmarted them to catch them in the act and bring them to justice. The creators of our show were responsible for hunting down and catching the biggest spies in our country's history. From the FBI, CIA, U.S. Congress and international agencies, our counter intelligence experts will take viewers deep inside this game of cat and mouse, decipher the profile of a traitor, how they were caught, and what the actual and potential damage from each breach.

great recommndations, Patriot is amazing dark comedy with great atmosphere, SR is great semi-documentary about alien planet ecosystem, very peaceful, didn't like CSE and Counterpart though
I would suggest also Devs just for the visuals and Tales from the Loop for the most peaceful TV show I've ever seen
My two favorite hidden gems are Patriot and ZeroZeroZero. They also did Outer Range, A Hero (movie), Red Oaks, Good Omens, and Mozart in the Jungle.
The Boys and Invincible are both excellent, but more “mainstream” shows.
Patriot rules, and is criminally under-watched. True facts: I watched the first season of that show without realizing that my sister-in-law is in it, until she shows up in like episode 2 (and through the rest of the season). An extremely WTF moment, I recommend everybody have it on some kind of show.
