Featured review
They don't make spy series like this anymore...
I'm young, just entered my 20s and yet I know they don't make spy series like this anymore. Callan was light but has certain depth on each and every episode. The writing was unique and somehow relatable. It centered not only in storytelling but also character development (which in today's standard is a bit hard to find. At least a good one). I personally think that's what series should do: showing characters development/arcs that movies mostly can't do. And they executed it perfectly when they decided to write Callan.
Woodward was such a phenomenal gem in this one. He pictured Callan so perfectly. His fears, his dislikes, his interests, all was in the right place. It's as if he was born to play Callan. I have absolutely such a delightful time watching him.
Initially I'd give it a 8.5 but alas... But after I think about it again, Callan deserve a spot of 9 on IMDB.
