The Agency
The Agency is. The show has been executive produced by Michael Frost Beckner, Shaun Cassidy Productions and also Radiant Productions in association with Universal Network Television and CBS Productions and was created by Michael Frost Beckner. It aired before May 17, 2003 from September 27, 2001, lasting two seasons. It featured unprecedented filming from the CIA headquarters.
The series was contentious regarding its exploration of current international affairs and its own treatment of the conflicts inherent in intelligence work. Beckner's pilot script, written in March 2001, posited a re invented CIA tasked with a"War on Terror" after Osama Bin Laden's Al Qaeda terrorist organization plots a deadly attack on the west. The pilot was to premiere at CIA Headquarters on September 18, 2001 and place to broadcast on CBS September 21, 2001, however, the specific 9/11 strikes convinced the network to contain the pilot and instead air a subsequent episode. That episode has been aired as the season's third episode.
The September 11, 2001 terrorist events changed the way Americans viewed topical entertainment and"The Agency", during the time, was one of the very topical offering on network tv. CBS chose to cancel the series after the final episode of the 2nd season, although the producers of the show responded for the American perspective in the world affairs.
