Wenlei Ma The Nightly (AU) When Netflix talks about making shows that are “gourmet cheeseburgers”, The Diplomat is it. It's a lesson in how to make TV that is incredibly binge-y, entertaining, and doesn’t make you feel like an idiot for liking it. Nov 20, 2024 Full Review Anita Singh Daily Telegraph (UK) Janney is this series’ saving grace, because until her arrival things are too gloomy. Rated: 3/5 Nov 4, 2024 Full Review Brian Tallerico RogerEbert.com With enough babbling nonsense on the actual political landscape, as there is right now, I’ll take a bit of the fictional kind to ease my mind. Nov 1, 2024 Full Review Li Lai Mediaversity Reviews Male-skewing numbers aside, The Diplomat reveals an empowering script where women drive most of the series’ events. Rated: B- Dec 12, 2024 Full Review Austin Burke Austin Burke/Flick Fan Nation Season two elevates the stakes, becomes faster-paced, and ultimately has more explosiveness than the first. It may occasionally feel overwhelming, but the results are impressive. Russell crushes once again. Rated: 8/10 Nov 28, 2024 Full Review Bill Brioux Brioux.tv The Diplomat is bloody entertaining, plays on a big canvas and boasts feature film-like production.

Kashgar A Disappointing. Very disappointing. The Hal husband character is a narcissistic disgrace and the actual ambassador spends her entire life shouting No! at him them continually doing his biding. The pair of them run around interfering in international affairs that they do not understand, making every possible situation worse. Honestly don’t know if I’d bother with another season Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/25 Full Review Audience Member Definitely better than season 1 but still not my favorite, the whole show is very slow and not really that much entertaining, season 2 had better scenes and scenes which are in general more exciting than the ones in season 1 but still overall it is just nothing I would recommend to anybody, the ending scene or more likely the cliffhanger was pretty solid but it is just really boring. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/26/25 Full Review Rob T Very compelling and entertaining with intrigue an unexpected twists. Very well done, would love to watch more seasons. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/25 Full Review Alan B First class. Reminiscent of The West Wing series. You have to concentrate to keep up with the twists and turns. Superb acting, very high production values, and an exciting and believable plot. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/15/25 Full Review Big J Certainly entertaining and watchable. Well-cast and acted. Also implausible and unnecessarily sweary. Would an ambassador be quite so free and easy with effing and jeffing ? Takes a fair bit away from the quality of the piece. When an expletive is truly warranted, it sounds matter of fact. Lazy writing, maybe. Either way, it jarred. Also too many baffling references to peeing. Why ? Watched it to the end with pleasure though. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/15/25 Full Review Julio S Season 2 is even better than season 1 . We could not stop watching .
