The Thick of It
CriticsCritics: 93
AudienceAudience: 8.5
A minister in charge of social affairs struggles to manage government crises while facing relentless pressure from a powerful policy enforcer. Around him, a team of civil servants and advisers scramble to contain mistakes, shape the message, and keep political chaos under control.
You’ll likely enjoy this if you like fast, foul-mouthed political satire with relentless workplace chaos, especially Veep or In the Loop; Not for you if shaky visuals, intense shouting, or heavy profanity are deal-breakers.
