JoBlo's review of the series was glowing, remarking: "The shortened series length means the story is far tighter than other recent shows, and it shows."
"Each episode is chock full of character development, twists, turns, and all manner of intricate plotting that never lets up through each hour-long chapter."
"By the time I reached the finale, I was convinced I knew where the series was headed but continually came up surprised at how well this series is made."
Netflix is gearing up for the launch of the much-awaited series 'Black Doves' this week, featuring a gripping tale about a spy who steps into the life of a politician's wife.

So, it's that thing I think we all know and that we all do, but ramped up to ten, or 11 or 12."
She continued: "We all do it. For me, I'm on a film set and then it's, 'Oh, you passed your spelling test I love you so much!'" Fans can catch the premiere of the series on December 5.
