Spy dramas 'The Enemy Within' and 'Whiskey Cavalier' to release this week; here's what viewers can expect

NBC and ABC are no strangers to the spy genre, and their two shows are slated to release this month in what seems to be a spy battle, but is it really?
PUBLISHED FEB 25, 2019

NBC and ABC are two of the biggest names in network TV, and it comes as no surprise that these two networks are releasing what claims to be the best spy shows for the year, but we've heard that a million times before, and there really needs to be an upgrade in marketing tactics.

The NBC will be premiering 'The Enemy Within' on February 25 and boasts big names like Jennifer Carpenter and Morris Chestnut. The series itself has been really secretive about the plot as it opens with a stark announcement that over 100,000 spies are on American soil, more than any other time while hitting the appropriately paranoid note. It follows the misfortune of Erica Shepherd, a former CIA Deputy-director who's now known as America's most notorious traitor for giving away the names of four agents, who lost their lives because of Erica's folly. The show runs along a strictly drama-thriller theme with no room for so much as a chuckle to the viewer's lips while they sit glued to their TV sets.
