It's an Amazon Network political comedy, written by Gary Trudeau! Not as rich as Treme by any means, but a fun jab at RW politics.

It was quite surreal to hear John Goodman ranting and then realizing he was quoting one of Ashley's blog posts! (I was a regular commenter.)

Hey,
I really like that show and didn't realize it was the last season. I love me some Antoine Batiste. Some of the other characters are more complex, but I think he is my favorite.

Peace

And I've decided I want Melissa Leo to play the main character in the movie version of my novel.

It was bittersweet watching tonight but good to see things going on. I've known too many people who were either the screwers or the screwees in the rebuild.
