9 Shows to Watch When You're Jonesing For Scandal

Technically considered a miniseries, Political Animals was so far ahead of its time when it aired in 2012. Sigourney Weaver, the queen herself, plays Hillary Clinton-esque politician Elaine Barrish, whose political career has run the gamut of senator to governor to secretary of state. Barrish's husband, Bud, is a philandering ex-president and is a hapless and greasy caricature of a politician, but she rises above to create a political empire that rivals any of her male counterparts. It's got a very 2016 election vibe, for sure.
