About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a dark, bingeable power game with constant scheming and moral gray areas, similar to Homeland; not for you if you need hopeful heroes or a consistently satisfying final stretch.
Pros: gripping political intrigue; strong performances; addictive early seasons | Cons: later seasons uneven; final season divisive; some plots stretched
