A 1970's era show about a N. Vietnamese spy who infiltrated the S Vietnamese government, and escaped from Saigon with the others.

Robert Downey Junior plays like 5 roles, and it's not supposed to be the same guy pretending to be 5 people. Apparently.

It's weird watching a story from the perspective of a "bad guy" like this and he's played to be a pure protagonist.

I've finished the show, and there were a couple minor character revelations, but I'm left wondering what the overall point was.

I never went back to internet forums so I have seen no discussion/analysis.
