A lot of people complain about the title of this show, but I actually think it's a bit deliberate. It pays homage to old-school spy war dramas, such as "Charlie's Angels" in the 1970s. They like to use silhouettes, contrived expressions, exaggerated movements, Clumsy fights and more.
In 007, the female protagonist is either alive or dead, so that James Bond can continue to be romantic and not lewd in the next episode; so it is natural for the male protagonist (pseudo) to be shot in the end.
There is no earth-shattering conspiracy, and there is nothing too dirty in the government. The CIA is basically a good person and never tortures confessions. The heroine is a model of morality. , The heroine insisted on not killing people in 11 episodes, which is really commendable!
In short, this is a spy war drama with a strong old-fashioned drama style. The protagonist will never start killing people first, and always have to fight back. Of course, it's a bit silly to look at now, but it's silly and cute, and it's good to watch for leisure and entertainment. It's not like it's always dark, regretful, and tangled now, isn't it good to take a look at handsome men and beautiful women.
The recent 007s seem to be quite successful, but have they really attracted young audiences and cultivated new fans? Or is it just killing the feelings of old fans? When I was young, I liked watching 007. I was attracted by beautiful sports cars, resorts, hotels and casinos, life and death, and saving the world. These things we can't experience. Although we know it's fake, it doesn't matter, it's fun to watch.
Now the 007 middle-aged uncle is full of injuries and sadness. For old fans, maybe they can talk about masturbation: You are old too. But can young people like such a protagonist? Entertainment movies and TV series are the protagonists who need to be hung up.
Even Game of Thrones claims: mortals must die. But in fact, the dead are all mortals, and extraordinary people can be resurrected when they die.
PS. The heroine is really like a dragon mother. She seems to be a dragon mother who has developed a little better, especially her smile.
