   Is the First Lady a good show?

   • The First Lady is a barely thematically connected and carelessly staged summary of three fascinating figures. All of them deserved better. With such powerhouse actors on set, its a shame that the series is a jumbled collection of moments that barely glance upon what makes these women so special.

   What is the role of a First Lady?

   • The role of first lady of the United States is an anachronism, a throwback to a time when a good wife stayed at home in the shadow of her husband and kept her mouth shut. Hillary Clinton tried to break the mould, leading the White House's health care task force when Bill Clinton became president.
