The Diplomat
1x07 Keep Your Enemies Closer
1x08 The James Bond Clause [season finale]
Really enjoyed this series overall, but it fell into multiple streaming series pitfalls — primarily, that it doesn't conclude its story; it just ends in a great big "hope we get recommissioned cliffhanger". It's particularly disappointing because there's enough going on here, and enough potential, that they could've wrapped up one narrative as a "story of the season" kind of plot and that would've still left various threads dangling for future seasons. On the bright side, at least it has been recommissioned. Would've been doubly shit if it hadn't.

Poker Face
1x10 The Hook [season finale]
This, on the other hand, does it all right: wraps up the ongoing plot that kicked off in episode one, but sets things up to continue. A great show all round — I've loved every episode. So glad this is coming back, too.
