Not sure if it's a face that's been altered for the title of the show, but any help would be appreciated

At first glance it appears to be based on Gill Sans or Johnston, with steeper angles on the diagonals.

Although this looks like it might have been customised in some details titles these days are often straight use of a commercial font so I wouldn’t rule that out. This does look familiar to me, I can’t pin it down so it may just be a resemblance to something I know.

Some more: Circe, Steagal, Agenda
Reminds me also another font, used to be very popular 5 years ago, some sort of geometric sans with "some (slab) serifs", something like Empirical... Can't remember it...

If it is an actual font (as opposed to a manipulated rendering) it seems likely to be plagiarized, so do be careful.
