If you are in the mood for something lighter and more comedy-oriented, The Politician is the best option for you. Created by Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Ian Brennan, The Politician stars Ben Platt as Payton Hobart, a wealthy student from Santa Barbara who has always known he’s going to be the President of the United States, but he wasn’t counting on having to go through the “most treacherous landscape of all” first: high school. Also starring are Gwyneth Paltrow, Jessica Lange, Zoey Deutch, Lucy Boynton, and Laura Dreyfuss. The Politician promises to follow “a different political race” Payton is involved in every season, so there’s more planned after this first batch of episodes.
