      What to know

      Critics Consensus

      Deutschland 86 is a rollicking spy caper that leverages its chic 1980s aesthetic to addictive effect -- proving both pleasurably suspenseful and empathetic to the point-of-view behind the Iron Curtain. Read critic reviews

      Audience Reviews for Deutschland 86: Deutschland 86

      • Apr 26, 2023
        A worthy second season, although not quite to the level of 83. It wasn't as believable as its predecessor and the story wasn't as intriguing. But overall, it was a well done and entertaining season.
      • Feb 22, 2023
        More disjointed than the first season but it comes together for a satisfying conclusion. The writing is just as good as the previous season. The soundtrack takes a step back as it tries to be more in step with the harder rock of the middle 1980s. We follow the same characters who survived the first season and many of them have significantly more minor roles than the first season. Overall, I would recommend Deutschland 86 to fans of Deutschland 83.
      • Jul 30, 2021
        A little confused at the start but still thrilling
      • Mar 27, 2021
        '86 is a shell of what '83 was. It imports a more global geopolitical angle, and doing so it starts to paint the east as the evil empire that was always going to fail. It moves away from the series' roots of the thrill of a good spy story. For that, this season is watchable, but not nearly as enjoyable. Western media always falls into the claptrap that the eastern bloc was the most evil, worst society ever designed in the history of mankind, and the second season departs from the first season greatly on this. It lost its independent thrill in the process.

        Great second season of a great series
      • Dec 24, 2020
