Highly Recommended - The Assets

Mini-series on Aldrich Aimes, the mole in the CIA who single-handedly pretty much wiped out the US spy network in the USSR in the '80s. Aside from some 'chronological confusion' (sometimes you couldn't tell when a flashback started or ended) I found it to be a very well done docudrama. Based on what I have read, it stuck very close to the real story and even though you know how it turns out, it was a riveting 8-part series.

Be sure and watch to the end. They interview the real people.

The reason for his treason was kind of mind boggling.
