Political Animals (insert cute, pithy and or punny tile here)


I am currently watching the second episode of Political Animals and I think I am hooked.

I enjoyed the first episode quite a bit but you have to watch more to get the idea of what the show is really about. Sigourney Weaver really brought it. I believe what she is selling. I find her inspirational and real and so many other things. The rest of the ensemble is just as impressive. Ellen Burstyn? Mind blowing. Sebastian Stan is convincing and tragic (in a really fantastic way). Everytime I saw Sebastian Stan I yelled "Bucky!" (hehehe)

The integral weaving of serious storylines with funny, lighthearted moments were just the ticket to keeping my interest. I will be watching to see where they take this show.

I have seen a few people who felt this show was predictable…arent they all? Really? I’m not saying original thought doesn’t exsist but what I am saying is that when it comes to TV/movies/books etc…there are genres and types you like and ones you don’t and I guarantee MOST people don’t stray from their wheelhouse. Just sayin…

I will keep you update on my opinion of this show.
