We've been watching this new mini-series on USA network. So far, it is pretty interesting. Ostensibly, it is about behind-the-scenes machinations in the political arena of a fictional USA, with the main character being a former first lady, now Secretary of State (does that make you think of anyone?). Her ex husband is a former POTUS, a womanizer, southerner, and inveterate charmer (does THAT make you think of anyone?). There are plenty of other characters, who DON'T make me think of anyone from the real world, but are still interesting. It's only three episodes deep so far, but I'm finding it interesting enough to set up a series recording. Also, this is one of the rare instances where Sigourney Weaver actually plays a female character! Anyone else watching? What do you think? www.imdb.com/title/tt2239947/

Been watching also, though I DVR'd last night's episode. Been enjoying it, I am taking it as something of an "alternate" timeline type show, where that"someone" decided to challenge her party's incumbent.
The veils are VERY thing on this story, but its been well done and compared to the other summertime fare a worthy summertime viewing .
