The 20 Best TV Shows Based on Mossad

Gizmo Storyby Gizmo Story

Before being given this article, I had no idea who or what MOSSAD was. I somehow mistakenly took the word for Mozart, which just sounded more ridiculous. I mean, why would anyone make THAT MANY shows in the life of Mozart? But now, after watching shows based on MOSSAD, I can confidently say that it is one of the best genres out there and worth giving a try. MOSSAD (which stands for ‘Merkazi le-Modiin ule-Tafkidim Meyuhadim’ in Hebrew and ‘Central Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations’ in English) is an Israeli intelligence service, which established in 1951.

Here’s a list of my favorite shows from this genre:

Conclusion 

With that, we have come to an end to this list. Mossad is certainly a very interesting brick in the world of television series and movies, and if you haven’t watched a piece yet, you absolutely must. The spine-chilling and bone-wrecking plots keep you glued to your device. In the end, it gets a hold of your conscious and subconscious mind, and you think about it all day long. But isn’t that the whole point of such depictions?
