  • TV Outside The
    1 ALPHA HOUSE on Amazon Elliot Webb: Executive Producer As trailblazers in the television business go, Garry Trudeau, the iconic, Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist/creator of Doonesbury, has an unprecedented track record. In 1988, Trudeau wrote and co-produced (with director Robert Altman) the critically acclaimed, political mockumentary Tanner ’88 for HBO. It was HBO’s first foray into the original scripted TV business, albeit for a limited series. (9 years later, in 1997, Oz became HBO’s first scripted drama series.) Tanner ’88 won an Emmy Award and 4 cable ACE Awards. 25 years later, Trudeau created Alpha House—which holds the distinction of being the very first original series on Amazon. The single-camera, half-hour comedy orbits around the exploits of four Republican senators (played by John Goodman, Clark Johnson, Matt Malloy, and Mark Consuelos) who live as roommates in the same Capitol Hill townhouse. The series was inspired by actual Democratic congressmen/roomies: Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL), Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY), and Representative George Miller (D-CA). Bill Murray did 2 cameos as hapless Senator Vernon Smits. Other real life politicians appeared throughout the series’ 2- season run. The series follows in the footsteps of Lacey Davenport (the Doonesbury Republican congresswoman from San Francisco), and presidential candidate Jack Tanner (played by Michael Murphy). All of Trudeau’s politicians are struggling to reframe their platforms and priorities while their parties are in flux. I think it’s safe to say that the more things change in Washington, the more things stay the same. Trudeau explores identity crises through his trademark trenchant humor.
