The Agency

A short-lived series about inner workings of the CIA -- a mix of Spy Drama, Government Procedural and office drama. The show lasted from September, 2001 to May, 2003.

Lots of Espionage Tropes, naturally.

 * Everything's Better with Cows: The first season episode "Moo", with a World War II spy cow-suit.
 * Flock of Wolves: A sting operation to catch terrorists nets them agents from the FBI, Immigration, and the Secret Service, but no actual terrorists.
 * Interservice Rivalry
 * The Mole: One episode focused on the search for one.

 * Spy Glasses: With infrared camera.
 * The Spymaster
