Former CIA counterintelligence director James Jesus Angleton, also known as “the spy poet,” describes the intelligence game as “a desert of mirrors,” a phrase borrowed from a T.S. Eliot poem called Gerontion (the title is Greek for “little old man,” and the poem is an internal monologue connecting the opinions and impressions of an elderly man describing post-World War I Europe through the eyes of a man who lived most of his life in the 19th century).
In US
In the world of intelligence, in the search for truth, it is difficult to distinguish between reality and its reflection, an illusion, if you will, as if one were in a “Hall of Mirrors”. During a dialogue from a Martian in a discussion with Dr. Blake, the acronym "OBE" is incorrectly explained as "Overcome By Events". government agencies, including those in the intelligence community and the Department of Defense, the correct/official explanation of the acronym "OBE" is “Overcome By Events”..
I hated the first episode
The opening credits depict the characters and scenes of the series interspersed with mirrored panes.

Dialogue and overall production
It was too polished and predictable. It almost feels like they fired the entire writing room and hired a new crew for episode 2. Episode 1 had some major technical flaws in terms of the actual technology used. Episode 2 was so well done in terms of pacing.
The writing and script are everything
I understand some of the earlier reviews with low scores.. BUT if they continue to ramble on about the excessive dialogue from episode 1 and moving forward, they are missing the formula to deliver smoothly. Which can be so hard to digest, this could be a truly exceptional production, especially with the talent that has joined this production. Hopefully they can iron out the early wrinkles and this will be a Banger of a SHOW.
