The Plot Against America

description

"The Plot Against America" is a six-part miniseries based on the novel of the same name by Philip Roth. The series was created by David Simon and Ed Burns and aired on HBO in March 2020.

The series is set in an alternate history where Charles Lindbergh, a famous aviator and isolationist, becomes president of the United States in 1940, defeating Franklin D. Roosevelt in the presidential election. Lindbergh's presidency leads to the country taking a turn towards fascism, and the series follows the experiences of a Jewish family living in Newark, New Jersey, as they face the consequences of this shift in power.

The series explores themes of anti-Semitism, xenophobia, and the erosion of democracy. It has been praised for its powerful performances, strong writing, and timely relevance in the current political climate. The series also received multiple Emmy nominations, including for Outstanding Limited Series and Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited Series or Movie for Mark Ruffalo's performance as the patriarch of the Jewish family.

CSI: Miami

2021
Drama
A stylistic and narrative departure from the other titles in the "CSI" franchise, the CSI: Miami edition strives to recreate the neon-drenched allure of South Beach. Veteran television viewers may recognize the show's natural affinity with the eighties hit "Miami Vice"; apparently, in Miami, the light always shines through colored filters and everyday events always have awesome soundtracks. As in all the "CSI" shows, a dedicated squad of forensics experts solves otherwise unsolvable crimes with the benefit of their daunting intellects and their dazzling technology. Plots follow Jerry Bruckheimer's tried-and-proven formula for "following the evidence" wherever it leads. The "pretty" one among the CSI brands, "CSI: Miami TV Show" features at least as much scientific could-be as it depends on forensic facts. Naturally, the characters are as pretty as their surroundings. David Caruso stars as Horatio Cane, the unit leader with a special gift for slowly and deliberately taking off his sunglasses and delivering pithy one-liners as if they were lines from Shakespeare. Emily Procter charms as ballistics expert Calleigh Duquesne, and the juxtaposition of petite southern belle with major firearms is not wasted on the show's primarily male audience. Adam Rodriguez plays the sometimes tormented "Delko," and Rodriguez tops fan polls as the show's most personable actor. Jonathan Togo and Eva LaRue round-out the show's collection of pretty people.
