Divorced former First Lady Elaine Barrish is currently serving as the Secretary of State. She finds an unlikely ally in a D.C. journalist who had previously dedicated herself to tearing Barrish to pieces. Written by Belanti
Completely taken by surprise with this show. I honestly loved it.
Well written, good strong characters and lots of things going on, so no chance of it becoming a bore.
The series is definitely helped by the fact they have Sigourney Weaver playing the lead character. A perfect choice if I say so myself. I reckon if they had anybody else it may not have actually worked, so excellent casting.
I love the gritty aspect to the series if I am honest. The behind the doors language gives a far more sense of reality to the real world.
Loving the plots which shall remain a mystery to those who are thinking on whether to watch the show or not, but I would say, definitely watch it.
I hope the series does not get cancelled, I am left stunned by the US cable channels pulling the plug on many series and yet, the trash remains. Very puzzling.
Great casting, great show. If you liked West Wing you should like this.
