Creator: Jed Mercurio

Bodyguard should come with a viewer’s discretion warning, as there are several stretches of anxiety-inducing, with such unbearable tension, that can make anyone jump out of their seats and leave the room. In fact at some point during the movie, I actually turned between pausing or discontinuing the movie altogether. My heart kept pounding as I attempted to rationalize whether or not the story could really do this or that, right?
The 6-episode Netflix’s series is produced by Jed Mercurio and was first aired on the BBC (before staggering viewership numbers). In the movie, the metropolitan police officer who is known as David Budd (Richard Madden), a renowned war veteran who uses his special skills while off-duty in diverting a major terrorist attack in the first fifteen minutes of the series. Though Bodyguard is in no way interested in becoming Jason Bourne or Jack Ryan, what makes this series stand out — despite all of those super-tense moments — is how well Madden sells his badass character as someone who also has deep emotional connections and is compassionate towards many. David, on the other hand, is tasked with being the bodyguard for a Conservative Home Secretary-Julia Montague (Keeley Hawes), the show really gets intriguing and ramps up its tension (and sexiness). Ultimately, the show offers viewers an exhilarating ride that truly showcases Madden as a major talent to look out for, one who will stop at nothing and is capable of not just leading Winterfell bannermen in Game of Thrones, but leading the Bodyguard series as well as others.
Created By: Matthew Weiner
Cast: Jon Hamm, January Jones, Elisabeth Moss, John Slattery, Vincent Kartheiser, Christina Hendricks, Robert Morse, Kiernan Shipka, Jared Harris, Rich Sommer, and Aaron Staton
This action-packed series may not have gained recognition much with the Emmys in recent years; however, it remains one of the best shows ever aired on television. The final episode of the series gave the show a near-perfect ending that is worth the watch.
Matthew Weiner- the creator of the show used his years of experience on The Sopranos in producing much of Mad Men’s episodes which took the form of short novels. For Weiner, a character is king, and that was the approach he took in creating Mad Men, which means sometimes we might not necessarily need to focus on all the characters in a given episode. Weiner was also able to capture the story using different seasons in each episode allowing for the full thematic weight of each installment to sink in, and connecting the dots from one event to the next.
It’s difficult to mention those standout episodes as the list is endless, so if you’ve been putting off watching this new classic you might want to reconsider. Check it out on Netflix right now and you won’t be disappointed. – Adam Chitwood
