Gaslit (2022)
10/10
History Repeats Itself
12 June 2022
This series is a new comically tragic take on the demise of Nixon during Watergate. Professional reviewers are calling it disjointed and confusing. I found it to be an incredible satire. If readers feel that Woodward and Bernstein's book went too deep in suggesting that Nixon's lap dogs were shadowy masterminds and that this version all involved were just incompetent idiots on a cartoon level, then Gaslit hits all the marks.

The cast especially Julia Roberts, Sean Penn, and Shea Whigham who plays G. Gordon Liddy are all Emmy-worthy.

I am sure that one day some clever writer, director, or producer will make a satire on the current 45 drama so one day we can all laugh at him, his family, and his cronies.
