TV show description:
A political thriller, the Patriot TV show follows intelligence officer John Tavner (Michael Dorman). With only his unsafe “non-official cover” as a mid-level employee at an industrial piping firm, Tavner is on assignment to stop Iran from going nuclear.
Patriot explores the seldom-seen, gritty, and gruesome sides of an intelligence officer’s life. Although the stakes are high — i.e. the actual future of the world — it’s often the eccentricities of those around John Tavner, as well as unforeseen complications, which make him have to choose between bad and worse options.
John’s elder brother, Edward (Michael Chernus), is a young Texas congressman, who is also the father of a secret mixed-race son. Their dad, Tom Tavner (Terry O’Quinn), is the State Department Director of Intelligence. Rounding out the family is Alice (Kathleen Munroe), John’s understanding yet lonely wife.
Further complicating this assignment are Agathe (Aliette Opheim) a sharp homicide detective from Luxembourg, who is hot on John’s trail, and Mr. Claret (Kurtwood Smith), John’s stickler of a new “boss” at the piping firm.
Lingering PTSD, governmental ineptitude, and meeting the requirements of his cover, cause spiraling blunders which threaten Tanner’s mission. His penchant for smoking pot and writing all too confessional folks songs about his job don’t help matters. And then there’s the trail of dead and maimed bodies he leaves in his wake.
Series Finale:
Episode #18 — Escape from Paris
All hell breaks loose.

What do you think? Do you like the Patriot TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a third season on Amazon?

Hopefully it’ll get Amazon’s or another streaming service’s attention.
Best TV show ever and certainly since Breaking Bad. Too bad it didn’t land on a network that cares to promote it’s content. Come on Netflix this show belongs with the best content provider in the world!
Patriot was the best show on tv.
Please renew this show. It’s Brilliant!
So upset! It’s disappointing to see yet another favorite show stolen from us.
show is great renew it please.
Just finished the last episode of Season 2. Loved it! I finally found a great series I thoroughly enjoy and will be so disappointed if it gets canceled! The writing is brilliant, characters are awesome, camera work is great! Crossing my fingers Season 3 will air and soon!
Amazing show full of creativity and talent!
I love it. It’s so good. I think I watched it on repeat for over 6 months. Smart, dark, funny, difficult. Shows like this don’t exist. I can’t express how much I love this show. Please let the writer keep writing this. And his brother is so amazing. It’s perfect. When I try to think of any aspect of it, I just see that it’s all perfect. Even with its flaws. I don’t really mean perfect. But looking at all the big pieces of it, the writing style, the scenes, the music, the movement of the story. It’s great. Double… Read more »
This is a unique show. I can’t believe it has possibly been cancelled! Just saw the last episode of the second season, and I hope it really isn’t the last episode of the series! It combines humor, drama and mystery. Wonderful acting. Please, please renew it!
This is a seriously great series. There aren’t as good shows like this available. The acting is perfect and you feel the characters and how they weave into each other. Big important messages imparted outside of the storyline. This series has to continue. Steven Conrad has put together something wonderful.
Please have Season 3 and asap. My husband & I both loved the series. Heard about it from my son & his wife who loved it too.
Absolutely the best! Need me some Season 3!!!
I love this show, what do you think Mr. Lakeman “pretty good!…what?” The show you are in, maybe renewed? “That’s pretty cool!, I would probably do that.” What? “What?” What would you do? “Maybe renew the show.” Are you going to…renew it? “Yah probably.” So you’re renewing the show? “That would be pretty cool, can i have my fingers back, i need them for something?” You best friend has your fingers. “Yah, but can I have them?” I’m asking if a third season will happen? “Yah” Yes it’s going to happen? “What?” The third season? “You need to stand right… Read more »
