Excellent acting was what made this series, as well as the very interesting content and insight into the situation of Israel and its Arab neighbours. The guy playing Uri was brilliant - mulit-faceted and totally believable. I see he won an award. It was well deserved. Amiel may have overdone the inscrutability, though. It's true that it's slow and it's also true that it goes a bit silly during the action sequences towards the end - but wonderful nonetheless. (Homeland, in comparison, was superficial and too much based on tricks and annoying over-emoting.)
