As a technical package, The Little Drummer Girl is polished and voluptuous. But as an exercise in gripping serial narrative, it lacks the spark and swagger of recent superlative small-screen espionage capers.October 26, 2018
This thriller gets its thrills in early and late. There is an explosion, and a significant plot development right at the end. There is a calm, then a hellride.October 17, 2018
It's hard to imagine someone watching these first two episodes and not finding them to be deeply pleasurable, artful and gripping. TV drama in 2018 has left some of its very, very best for last.October 28, 2018

Le Carré's stories progress best at a slow burn, and the pace thus far feels just right, set by creeping human desire and curiosity, not by rattled-off plot points.October 25, 2018
An impossibly attractive cast has been assembled for a drama that looks great but feels unsubtle and lumbering.October 15, 2018
You can practically smell the cigarette smoke, the post-Watergate disaffection and the desperate hope, that, with a new decade dawning, life simply has to get better.
