Netflix docuseries rated ‘most riveting ever’ by impressed viewers

Viewers have been left in awe after binge-watching Netflix’s newly released docuseries Spy Ops, with some calling it the ‘best’ documentary they’ve ever seen.

The series became available to watch on the streaming site on September 8 and has already received rave reviews from captivated viewers around the world.

Spy Ops delves deep into the world of geopolitics, with intelligence agents from MI6 and the CIA sharing their personal stories of spy craft, Cold War campaigns and coups carried out by secret agents.

The eight-part series features episodes that focus on politically controversial events, such as Operation Jawbreaker, in which US troops enter Afghanistan on a mission to take down the Taliban just fifteen days after September 11, 2001.

Other episodes follow MI6’s daring attempt to retrieve a Soviet double agent from Moscow, and feature testimony from a man who planned and attempted to assassinate Catholicism’s highest figure, Pope John Paul II.

Viewers from around the world have taken to X, formerly Twitter, to share their thoughts on the new docuseries, with many encouraging others to watch and describing it as ‘one of the best’ documentaries ever.

One person wrote, “The show ‘Spy Ops’ is pretty good on Netflix,” while another agreed, saying, “Spy Ops on Netflix is ​​really good!”

Another impressed fan wrote: ‘Oh my God. Spy Ops on Netflix is ​​riveting. One of the best documents ever.’

Another person tagged the CIA’s official account and wrote: ‘@CIA Watching Spy Ops, on Netflix. Astonishing!!!!!’

A final viewer pointed to a quote from the docuseries that caught their attention, writing, “Surprisingly, we have a place, like the CIA does, that has every weapon known to man. And you can get them in quantities.” Spy Ops on Netflix is ​​wild.”

However, some viewers shared their distaste for some of the content pushed in the series, with a number of people criticizing the US government and its ‘involvement’ in the affairs of other countries.

One person said: ‘I watch Spy Ops, the US has tentacles everywhere. In every country. They are the government of the world who can just invade any country if they don’t like the leader.’

Another viewer wrote: ‘Spy Ops literally glorifies the criminal activities of some states worldwide. Do they ever think about the people who live and die in those countries where they think that anything can happen during any operation?’

One person said: ‘Spy Ops lacks a serious counterpoint. As someone said, maybe we should get different perspectives? It’s a great one-sided historical review. They always go well.’

A final disgruntled viewer wrote: ‘It’s fascinating to see/hear the US with such confidence interfering in the elections in a foreign country. They are probably the only country that can do this with impunity.’

As for the CIA and accusing ‘interference’, this comes after the CIA was recently indicted for its role in helping draft a letter from 51 intelligence officials discrediting Hunter Biden’s laptop as Russian disinformation.

A Republican report released in May found that the CIA was actively involved in obtaining signatures for the letter that was “a political operation to help elect Hunter’s father Joe Biden in November 2020.”
