“A Man on the Inside” Season 1 debuted in November 2024 to a glowing reception from both audiences and critics.

The series is based on the documentary “The Mole Agent.” Mike Schur created the series and serves as an executive producer via Fremulon. Morgan Sackett is also an executive producer along with David Miner of 3 Arts Entertainment, Maite Alberdi and Marcela Santibañez of Micromundo Producciones, and Julie Goldman and Christopher Clements of Motto Pictures.
