Cate Blanchet is so great. This show is great from top to bottom, from the cinematography, the casting, the story, everything. And the events themselves, the charisma and brilliance of Blanchet, show how easy it is for conservative american politicians to create the false narrative that progress will undermine society.

Mrs. America ultimately highlights how fragile women's rights are, especially if you watch the show with the 2020/21 political scene on the background. And it demonstrates how a mysoginistic society is hard to break, despite all the progress and all the activism.

The show is also good in surprising you with comments that will make you groan or feel embarrased, whether it's comments about sex or about race. A crucial and important discomfort that more and more shows are going for, in order to make the viewer rethink their ideals.
