Kick-Ass Women on the Small Screen
Anatomy of a Scandal, The Diplomat, and The Night Agent
A few years ago I wrote about the TV series Wanted, The Code, and Collateral — all featuring kick-ass women who stop at nothing to get to the truth and serve up justice. Wanted and The Code, Australian productions, are still available on various screening formats and well worth the watch. My favorite of the three, Collateral, is a British production starring that brilliant pixie Carey Mulligan, vastly pregnant and rocking a trench coat. Read all about these riveting series here:
Two years on, I’ve just finished a productive series binge, courtesy of a virus that decided to take up an extended residence (before I finally shook it). So I’ve got the rundown on some thrilling series currently streaming on Netflix.
It’s worth your while to take a look, change the channel, and give reality TV a rest — because these three spectacular series feature brilliant writing and twists and turns you won’t see coming. Hang on to your comfy pillows and settle in for the ride.
