I found this show intersting to watch, so I'd like to share it with you:

Sigourney Weaver portrays Elaine Barrish, a divorced former First Lady and Governor of Illinois, as well as the current Secretary of State. While the lead character does have some similarities to Hillary Clinton, Weaver has said in interviews that the show is "very much about families who have been in the White House and the price they've paid for being in the White House and the fact that families who have been in the White House often try to get back in the White House or continue to try and get in the White House."

I agree. Although I've only seen the pilot so far (which explains the premise and back story), I'm very interested in this series' future. While I hope the writing will be good, I'm not holding out hope that it will be as good as West Wing. However, it seems to hold the promise of a very strong slate of female characters--which is rare in American dramas and especially rare in political dramas.
