The Brink

Tim Robbins is Walter Larson, on the cabinet to the U. S. president. State department worker Alex (Jack Black) and fleet driver Rafiq ( Aasif Mandvi) go tooling around town, in search of fun and excitement...that is, drugs and girls. As things heat up in Pakistan, they try to keep a lid on the violence and anti-U. S. activity, which could turn into war. Pilot Zeke Tilson has taken too many pills, and is flying around in very expensive equipment. John Larroquette is the ambassador. It's a good mix of political drama and humor. Sadly, there's only one season, having been canceled already, after the first season. This is currently on HBO/Max streaming channel. Check it out! If enough people like it, maybe it will come back!
