They basically created an incarnation of Trump on the liberal's side. At least somebody they wish that would pull his same stunts in their favor.
Not really sure this contains spoilers. Only got through three episodes to post this review. Slightly amazed about the lack of reviews. The show carries a clear message about what they consider good and evil. If you want to be on the side of good, act cool by smoking pot, hanging with young people, play an impromptu guitar on stage, endorse defense cuts, and invite illegals to live on your property.
Slick, nice-looking production. Sela Ward is beautiful and solid, as always, but in a straight role. Nick Nolte is not really funny or very endearing. Reminds me of his turn in 48 Hours as a grumpy, sloppy cop. Getting kneed in the groin made me laugh a little, in particular because it keenly - and not intentionally - captured the intolerant traits of liberals.
In my opinion, Portlandia and Veep pull off biting satire far better, without clunking you over the head with their agenda. Four out of ten based on Sela, some cool cameos, top notch production, and some random destructiveness.
score 4/10
