Condor is a Stan (Australia) series based on the novel Six Days of the Condor by James Grady. It follows the 1975 film adaptation Three Days of the Condor. I had only recently heard of this series due to all the bus shelter Stan posters for the series. It looked like Homeland lite.
The series premiered back in June 2018 in the USA. While a second season got the green light in July 2018. The second season, premiered this June. So I am a little late to the show, however I made quick work of the two 10 episode seasons.
Max Irons is not only handsome, he plays lead Joseph "Joe" Turner. The first season sees Joe on the run, the second sees him uncovering some shocking truths.
Constance Zimmer from UnREAL is a standout in season two. To be honest I did prefer the second season. It was an easier watch while season one towards the second half of the season begun to drag a little.
So over this summer slack/break period Condor might be your bag if Jack Ryan, Homeland and political spy style series get your juices flowing. Stan has again continued to grab any titles it can get its hands on and honestly this was not a bad buy.
