The Shadow Team reviews

The Shadow Team holds a 7.4/10 average from 36 TMDB ratings.

"Teskilat" (The Shadow Team) is an espionage action thriller series from Turkey. On the upside, a likable cast, reasonable acting, mostly solid characterizations, plus well-paced action.

In summary, a watchable spy action series…
— MovieGuys (6/10)

A team of elite agents within Turkey's National Intelligence Organisation are recruited for covert operations — on the condition that the outside world believes they are dead. Led by veteran officer Mete Bey, the shadow team carries out high-stakes missions at home and abroad, battling terrorist networks and foreign threats to national security. Drawn from real events, it's Turkey's answer to the spy thriller genre — patriotic, action-packed and relentlessly tense.
