    A drama like right now about Russians trying to influence world politics? And US elections? I’m not sure if it would be brilliant and we’d be all over it or if we’re so sick of hearing about it that we wouldn’t watch it

      I was thinking Chris Hansen style reverse cat fishing.

        No pun intended, catfishing had had a hook. You had someone that had wrapped up their lives and or a serious amount of money into someone there was an emotional angle. Most of the trolls don’t really have any belief in what they’re saying and it most their drawing people out to fight with them. Definitely a shower thought.

      A drama with the Russians would probably only last a week, maybe a month?. Add in China, Iran, and most importantly the US, and you would’ve got few season to watch.

      Too bad, but the rest of the world would love to see it.
