I just got to this via a Netflix disc. I don't have HBO, or whatever pay-per-view channel first offered this. It's a modern Washington melodrama. Every one is well dressed, well coiffed, well educated, well heeled, and treacherous. It opens with the new administration stiffing senior congress man Frank What's-his-last-name. Frank goes on to stick it to the administration with a damaging leak to the Washington Post, oops Herald. Most everyone comes across as nasty. Frank, the view point character, seems to be OK but you can see a broad streak of meanness just waiting to jump out and zap someone.
What's worse, we see stuff on TV news every night, just as raw.
