Wow, Episode 1 drew me in completely, with superb casting, acting, and even suspense.
Sarah Paulson is scary as the bitter and calculating Linda Tripp, who gets exiled to the Pentagon after her boss, Vince Foster, commits a very lonely suicide. "We asked all around the White House," a staffer tells furious Linda. "No one wants you here!"
Beanie Feldstein draws one in as 23-year-old lovesick White House intern Monica Lewinsky. In intriguing side roles, Annaleigh Ashley provides a stunning take on sexual-harassment accuser Paula Jones, and one hangs on every word from Margo Martindale as savvy publishing pro Lucianne Goldberg ("I live like I got nothing to lose. I recommend it!")
This glossy production paints an absorbing portrait of a spider cornering its prey. Yet, "loyalty is very important to me," Linda dishes to her new bud over chitchat about Weight Watchers entrees.
Out of morbid curiosity, the viewer can't help but stay tuned.
