It's a pretty interesting mix of reality and fiction, and I heartily applaud the effort by George Clooney and Steven Soderburgh. But the political junkie in me loved the real parts and could do without the fiction. Decide for yourself. Last night's debut episode runs again tonight at 8:30 on HBO.
Overall, I loved it. Seeing Howard Dean's impersonation of James Carville is worth it alone - it took place leading up to last Tuesday's Democratic debate as Carville and Co. are asked by Dean to prepare for it. Damned if he didn't use two of their suggestions in the debate, and Carville's reaction shots are priceless.
