Where's the legal drama gone?
2 June 2019
Warning: Spoilers
This show started as a great legal drama but has now deteriorated into an anti-Trump political satire. Michael Sheen's portrayal of eccentric lawyer Roland Blum was so over the top it was ridiculous, he was obviously channeling Jack Nicolson's performance in The Shining - and then some. Let's hope that he and Rose Leslie enjoy their escapades in D.C. and are never seen in this show again. The other plot lines stretch credibility to its limit and the little cartoons just interrupt the flow of any narrative. This should now be billed as a comedy. Something pretending to be a drama which really isn't any more. The constant anti-fascist politicising has become very wearing too. On the whole, the audience doesn't need to be lectured to about politics. We can think for ourselves, thank you.
