A subversive, scathing look at a self-loathing management consultant from a top-tier firm. Marty, a highly successful, cutthroat consultant is never above using any means (or anyone) necessary to get his clients the information they want.
This is a fantastic show. It's caustic but it also has heart. The cast is excellent - Don Cheadle is amazing and the rest of the cast plays off him really well. DC is able to project so much just with a look or a gesture at times. The show is also refreshingly NOT dumbed down. They don't feel the need to explain everything - the viewer is treated as a reasonably intelligent person who is able to put two and two together. Hope the show never loses that! If you are new to it I suggest you start with the excellent pilot and watch through the series sequentially. It really is a serialized dramedy in my opinion, so you get to watch the plots and relationships evolve over time. This has become one of my favourite shows of all time.
