The Night Manager (2016) - Season 1

About this episode

The episode reviews season 1 of The Night Manager, discussing its casting, story, and character relationships.

This month, we revisit season 1 of the Tom Hiddleston-led spy drama The Night Manager. Overall, we really like this series. The casting is amazing, and it is a very interesting story. However, we would have liked to have seen more of the training Jonathan Pine went through and how his relationship with Angela Burr developed. Speaking of, his relationships with the women in the show and how he seduces pretty much all of them was sometimes a bit much. Some of it could have worked better if it had been clearer how much time had passed between certain scenes. Next month, a couple trying to rekindle their romance winds up embroiled in a decades-long mystery at The Resort.
