I’m really glad someone else noticed the godawful clothing choices for Elaine Barrish on Political Animals, a show I gleefully hate-watch:

Weaver’s a knockout, and there was much to enjoy about her not–Hillary Clinton Elaine Barrish character, a former First Lady turned presidential candidate turned secretary of state. But how many corset-waisted skirts can one woman own? 


[Gabby] Douglas, a 16-year-old from Virginia Beach, became the first African-American Olympic all-around gymnastics champion and the third consecutive American to win.

I love her and our shared hometown.

I feel like some people out there forgot that Jimmy Wolk is human perfection.
I’m just here to remind you.

“When I first heard about it I thought “Oh, it’s about Hillary,” she says. “But really from the first page on I knew that Elaine Barrish is her own person. Her circumstances are completely different to Mrs. Clinton’s. This is the story of the Hammond family. It’s definitely not the story of the Clinton family.”

I’ve read the pilot script.  It reeks of Berlanti stealing material from Bill and Hillary.  That said, at least he cops to the laziness in the LA Times article about the show.

New promo materials were unveiled today for the upcoming USA miniseries Political Animals.
Trust me when I tell you that the pilot to this show is incredible.

Any excuse to post this pic is worth it.  Ladies and gentlemen, NY Mag and Deadline reported this weekend that James Wolk has officially signed on for the USA Hillary Clinton-rip off mini series Political Animals from Greg Berlanti.  I’ve read the pilot script, and there is some real potential there.
Fingers crossed that Jimmy, slated to play Doug - the son and chief of staff of Secretary of State Elaine Hammond - can really shine in a role that’s pretty subdued compared to the chaos surrounding him.
