Patriot is an American television series created by Steve Conrad for Amazon Studios. It is a political thriller that revolves around the life of John Tavner, an intelligence officer who happens to be an experimental folk singer as well. Played by Chris Conrad, John Tavner is a quirky character whose intelligence and sharpness reflect in both his professional and personal life. The show follows his complicated life, as he operates both as a spy and an undercover industrial engineer in the fictional town of Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

The show is set in a world where the United States is involved in a secret deal with Iran that could bring peace to the Middle East. John is tasked by his father, Tom Tavner (Kurtwood Smith), a high-ranking intelligence officer, to prevent the deal from falling apart.

The show starts with John returning home to his family after a failed mission in Luxembourg, where he had to stop the flow of money to Iran. He was severely injured in the mission and must go on a mandatory leave to recover. It is at this point that the show introduces the character of Leslie Claret (Aliette Opheim), a Dutch diplomat who quickly develops a romantic interest in John.

In his personal life, John struggles with his relationship with his wife, Alice (Kathleen Munroe), who is a doctor and traumatologist. They share a complicated relationship, and John's secret life as a spy has only made it worse. While John tries his best to keep it a secret, he can't help but share what he's going through with his brother Edward (Michael Dorman), who is the CEO of a major industrial firm.

The show follows John as he navigates his way through his professional and personal life, trying to keep both his jobs separate, all while trying to prevent the deal from falling apart.

Patriot is a show that is as quirky as its protagonist, John Tavner. The show's unique blend of comedy and drama captures the attention of the viewers right from the start. It is a show that is refreshingly different from other shows in the genre, as it takes a more creative approach to the spy thriller formula. The show's soundtrack, composed by Steve Conrad himself, is quirky and underrated, contributing an essential element to the series.

Chris Conrad brings his A-game to the role of John Tavner. His portrayal of a quirky intelligence officer is captivating, bringing a unique charm to his character. His chemistry with Aliette Opheim, who plays Leslie Claret is one of the highlights of the show.

Kurtwood Smith is another standout actor in the show. His portrayal of Tom Tavner, John's father, is one of the most memorable characters in the series. His dry, sarcastic sense of humor is refreshing, and he adds a layer of complexity to the storyline.

Overall, Patriot is a show that is a refreshing take on the spy-thriller genre, blending drama and comedy into a unique and engaging series. It has a strong cast of actors, an excellent soundtrack, and a creative plot that sets it apart from other similar shows. The show's cancellation after two seasons has been a disappointment for fans, as Patriot had the potential to become a hit series.
