The Diplomat Reviews

I’m not a fan of politic type shows. But I will watch one every now and then. I’m glad I decided to check this out. This show kept me invested the whole time. Finished it in 2 days. I hope they come out with a season 2 soon because this was great!

Very entertaining. Good characters. Dialogue can veer a little cheesy. It’s like Shonda Rhimes does Zero Dark Thirty. I’ll be looking out for season 2

More Aaron Sorkin-ish dialogue/ridic vibes than something like the Americans. But Keri Russell x Rufus Sewell x random hot UK prime minister dude is a winning combo. 5/5 cleaning dishes show (you can follow the whole plot just by listening).

Fast-paced, witty, and funny. Not even a fan of political dramas but this one was really well done. It can admittedly lean into the drama a bit too much at times, but that’s also what makes it an amazing binge watch. A top-notch show with great writing. 8.5/10.

Killing it!!

The best Netflix original in a while. She looks haggard but she’s actually the emergency US ambassador in London. Meant to be stationed in Kabul, she’s upset by the change in posts. But her hands on approach quickly gets her tangled in the highest conspiracy.

I liked it everybody

The start of the series is really strong and while it would be hard to keep the momentum it creates for long, it usually manages to. Only in season 3 there is a deceleration but the finale is enough to make you wait impatiently for season 4

7.5/10

Not finishing it

Binged all three seasons and am excited for the fourth. The show is pretty outrageous at times, but such addicting drama. Lots of political intrigue and memorable characters, and satisfying twists and turns. Big political chess game kind of show. I’ve enjoyed this one.

I love the politics, the drama and the deceit. I love it all

The Diplomat

Really good. Fueling my lifelong crush on Keri Russell

this show was amazing! i need season 2 like rn

Rating: 7.7/10

I liked this show a ton. The actors were fantastic and the premise of the series was decent. That said, story was pretty predictable and left waiting for the “gotcha moment” that never came. I’d watch another season or two but thats it.

sharp writing, ensemble cast, interesting drama, sometimes funny and so much good acting without words

First two seasons are excellent. Third season takes a big swing downward. Really disappointing.

Continue to love this show. Gift that keeps giving. Season 3 better than 2. Can’t wait for season 4! Upgraded to 9/10

Great show, good writing. Solid acting.
