About the show
The new Canadian sexy spy thriller series The Romeo Section premiered on CBC Television on October 14, 2015. It was created and written by Chris Haddock, a highly acclaimed author of intelligence drama series, co-authored by Jesse McKeown and consists of 10 episodes. The show is executive produced by Haddock, Laura Lightbown, Stephen Surjik and David Frazee. The second season of the popular show debuted on October 14, 2016.
Seduction is the key to the activities of the Canadian Intelligence Community's Romeo Section, inexistent for all official purposes. The so-called Romeo and Juliet assets are informants who are involved in intimate relationships of various duration with the targets of interest to the intelligence service. Wolfgang McGee (Andrew Airlie), a professor, an almost-retired Romeo asset and the head of the Romeo Section pulls the strings as he manages the work of his staff. Their work is the mundane spy stuff – murder, drug lords, corruption, lies. The second installment, which also contains 10 one-hour installments, features an investigation in the wake of a terrorist attack, with McGee looking into an attempted bombing in Vancouver together with an old friend Norman
Reviews and chances of renewal
The show is more of a psychological thriller than an action-packed one, an intricate mystery for a thoughtful viewer, but never dull or lacking in action where it's needed. Reviewers seem to agree that the all-pervading sense of danger is formidably portrayed and gripping. The series' creators consider it cutting-edge television, especially for Canada, in terms of the subject matter and the level of explicitness involved. The Romeo Section received very positive reviews from the critics, earned a 7/10 IMDb score, and the audience has been enthusiastic about the show as well. If this tendency continues we may very well expect to see a renewal of the series for season three announced in the near future.

Who's running the store? Your public are furious.
Chris Haddock, you are a genius. I watched and was riveted to every episode of 'intelligence' on Netflix recently. Maybe that's your new home. ?
It would be a crying shame if another great Canadian production disappeared.
This was one of the better shows on TV and the subtlety worked Ina way that no other series did, even if it is missing a bit of the hard edge and grit of an American made series.
Shame on you CBC for not renewing this. Sometimes you have to wonder what idiots make these decisions.....
