The only location unavailable was Winfield House, the actual residence of the American ambassador

Narrative

In the midst of an international crisis, Kate Wyler, a career diplomat, ends up in a high-profile job she is ill-suited for, with tectonic effects on her marriage and political future. Producers persuaded both the American and British governments to allow them to use real-life locations as filming locations for the series, including the fledgling American embassy (in Nine Elms), which opened in 2018. The UK allowed filming at the Foreign Ministry office, a rare award granted to any film or movie production, especially an American one. Although it is accurately described as being the largest residential property (11 acres) in London next to Buckingham Palace, producers used a country house outside the city for filming purposes.

Oh My God!

Featured at the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards (2024). ). Season 1 ended on a cliffhanger of gigantic proportions. Season 2 nearly gave me a heart attack in the final minutes of season 2.

Boy, was I wrong?

I don't know if my heart can handle a season 3. At first I thought this was going to be a deep, slow-burn political drama. Maybe another kind of feel-good TV drama like Madame Secretary. The Diplomat will keep you on the edge of your seat every episode.

Binge watching like a starving animal

This is political theater at its finest. It's even worse than I imagined in my wildest dreams. And even if it's only a tenth of what's ACTUALLY happening in U.S. politics and the various agencies (CIA, intelligence, diplomacy), it's still a wild ride.

Keri Russell once again plays a strong female protagonist, reminding me why I loved her performance so much in "The Americans" She's outstanding!
