lizasnyder How in the world did this not get picked up for a 2nd season? Following these people through a presidential campaign in season 2 would've been even better! I'm seriously upset about this!!

rjspears I found this series to be engaging and funny - sort of like a less poignant update of The Candidate, only looking at the campaign and not the candidate. The acting is top notch. Jay Hayden is completely compelling as the hired-gun campaign manager, Teri Reeves is great, Jack De Sena is good as the cynical speech writer, and Ben Werner is wonderfully awkward as rookie campaign worker. The filmmakers use a faux documentary style that is less like The Office and more like a real documentary.If you enjoy movies or shows about the political process, then this is the show for you. I eagerly awaited a second year that never came. I would have loved it had Hulu made it. Still, I highly recommend watching this first season.

carmmm4 I can't seem to find a way to rate this series, so I guess I have to write a review instead. If you ever enjoyed The Office or similar shows, you'll really enjoy this one. I was really surprised by how well done this show really is. The acting has to be top notch to carry a viewer's interest in a program like this because virtually all of the "action" is dialogue between the characters. I immediately fell in love with Ben and Ali's characters. (And yes, I do mean Ali and not Lindsay. Her interactions with Jordan are priceless.) Even Tak was compelling to watch, as his character is complicated, even if only likable at certain times. It honestly doesn't feel like you're watching something cheaper or of less quality than a show that is made for television. If it had aired on NBC instead of Hulu, it would have gotten a LOT more buzz. If you have a few hours, you can watch the entire first season in an afternoon and it's definitely worth it. Do not miss this one!I really hope it comes back for another season because there are still some questions I'd really like resolved.
