Tells the adventures of Conservative MP Alan B'Stard, a man who doesn't have any morals at all. He stops at nothing to make himself richer and more powerful in the party and is involved in drugs, adult films, fraud (making up charities with the initials C.A.S.H when writing on cheques) and even murder but believes that he will never be caught as he is a Conservative MP and therefore all powerful. He has almost complete power over another MP - Piers Fletcher-Dervish who is nearly completely brainless. His wife Sarah B'Stard has very loose morals (both of them have affairs mostly every day) and has hated her husband from five minutes after they got married and tries to use Alan to get anything she wants. Each episode contains recent news items and Alan moves with the times with things like the end of the cold war, the Nazi hunt in the late 80's as well as the Animal Freedom Party. Keeping up with the huge amount of cash, Alan moves (in the 4th season) to the European Union to continue to make herself richer and to climb to the most powerful position he can reach...

Health care reform was the first big policy deal taken on by the Obama administration. Many say the young president has bet the mid-term elections, possibly his presidency, on the outcome.

埃里克·甘迪尼的纪录片《电视政治》Erik Gandini, “Videocracy” 　　自从20世纪50年代显像管电视机风靡以来，电视机就被指责为降低美国公众智力的罪魁祸首。但在意大利，饱受丑闻困扰的西尔维奥·贝鲁斯科尼总理通过他对其所在国家最大传媒集团的垄断，控制着信息的传播。他通过媒体持续炮轰意大利广播电视公司（RAI），并在自家的Mediaset传媒集团的频道上大量播放肮脏的黄色节目，背后均有其更深层的原因。如果你想了解一位亿万富翁企业家的电视王国是如何改变了整个意大利的政治和大众传媒版图的，埃里克·甘迪尼精心构思的纪录片《电视政治》可以给你很多启发，让你对贝鲁斯科尼现象有一个深入的思考。这位出生在意大利、现居住在瑞典的导演（曾执导《关塔那摩：战争新规则》）并没有选择趟进唇枪舌战的文化冲突的浑水，而是采用了更讨巧的第一人称视角。 　　外滩美术馆北欧纪录片电影节。意大利真是一个奇葩的国度……这纪录片比故事片还好看啊。（www.kan84.net/bdhd/btVideocracy.html）
