Premiered last night on USA...comes on Sundays at 9pm

I'm a sucker for political dramas, but I thought it was pretty interesting. Appears to be based loosely on the Clintons IMO, kind of like Primary Colors.

Watched episode2, and I'm still liking it....Kind of a mix of West Wing and CommanderInChief

and there's no question IMO this series was modeled after the Clintons:

former President's wife runs for Pres, former President has had multiple affairs, she loses to the popular Gucci candidate, people used to hate her now she is pretty popular, becomes Secretary of State, etc, etc.

Sucks that it's only six episodes, though.

Why do they do limited series like this? (to gauge interest?...short ratings bump?...seems strange IMO if you've got a good show to only have it for a short period).


This series has been solid IMO...the only character that I don't really like so far is the straight brother .... his character seems forced/over-dramatic. But overall this is a really good show.
