Sleeper Cell (2005-2006)

Unrelated to the video game of the same name, Sleeper Cell (2005) is a very post 9/11 inspired Showtime miniseries about an FBI Agent infiltrating a group of Islamic terrorists living in the United States. Michael Ealy is Darwyn al-Sayeed, a former Army Ranger and one of the very few FBI Agents in America who both speak fluent Arabic and understand the customs of Islam (his dad was a member of the Nation of Islam). That background lands him the job of infiltrating an Islamic terrorist sleeper cell, headed by "The Deadly Knight" Faris al-Farik (Oded Fehr). While he's been pretending to be a Jewish guy named Yossi Amran, Faris was actually buddies with Bin Laden back in the day and trained at an Al Qaeda camp in Afghanistan. Another seemingly normal dude is Ilija Korjenic (Henri Lubatti) who loves rap, karaoke, teaching high school kids science, and planning bombings of US Military outposts as revenge for what they did to his family in Bosnia. There's even a super generic looking white guy in the cell named Tommy (Blake Shields). Obviously, this group could do some serious damage in the USA, so Michael needs to bring them down. But these aren't illiterate goat herders stuck in a third-world country. These fellas are smart, slick, and hyper-aware that the Feds are trying to infiltrate the gang. If Michael gets caught slipping, they'll put him in a permanent sleep before they let him put them in a cell. Speaking of attacks, we want to jump Michael Rady and Omid Abtahi who jump each other in a hot gay sex scene where they pound each other in the buns. Don't sleep on this gay scene! We get ass from each, despite that being super fun, but super uncool in Fundamental Islam. Oh well. Just imagine all the poor dudes living in those countries who could only dream of having a night like that one in Sleeper Cell!
