This Canadian TV series is fantastic. I saw the full first season without leaving my couch. It is impossible to stop watching, that's how good this is. The dialog is intelligent and full of surprising humor, a masterful use of language and theatrical sparks. Actors play the scenes with total involvement, they construct and maintain the atmosphere, the dialog and their glances tie them together in a perfectly directed story. Of course, Paul Gross is bewitching. His screen persona, his voice, his whole act, are so good - a delight. All of them are so good, though. And last, but not the least: the plot is great. You can't help but thinking that this show reproduces in a theater, what is happening on the political stage in the US. People with no taste or culture, but who control the money, try to buy and sell artists. Absolutely the greatest TV series in many years.
