3. I remember being a fan of that series back in the mid-aughts. Recently noticed the name change, confusing.

I feel like that name change was forced by MI5. LOL. sort of puts the frame in a different light.

I'm still a little bit ticked that Netflix acquiesced to TPB and ended their production of Pine Gap after the first 6 episode season. Left with a sort of twisted cliff hanger left dangling.
Wonder how they will deal with The Diplomat, if we'll get another season or more. It's actually quite entertaining but sort of realistic in a number of respects. I hope it doesn't get shut down like Pine Gap.
