Alpha House
Created by Garry Trudeau
On Prime Video
A sharp political satire built around four senators sharing a house, balancing sharp-edged comedy about corruption and re-election with genuine affection for its ensemble cast.
Four Republican senators share the same D.C. house rental, and face re-election battles, looming indictments, and parties -- all with a sense of humor.
