Under the show, the struggle for power.
Deep down below it all,
deeper than honour, deeper than pride,
deeper than lust & deeper than love,
is the getting of it all.
The seizing and the holding on.
The jaws locked, biting into power & holding on.

While I do not watch television at home I have enjoyed a few episodes of a few different programs and found the production value of some to be superb.

The viewer identifies with a politician who in ascending to the presidency without election, exploits, jails and murders the innocent. It is like "Pinochet: The Wonder Years".
Dexter, Breaking Bad, House of Cards, etc are just America's pretty and clever affirmations to itself to rationalize the evil it does. Was it better when America just had Davey Crocket and Leave it to Beaver? Probably not. I'm just hoping for a balance coming to the force is all.
