Death by Lightning. Good cast, decent series based on the real-life rise of US President James Garfield.

Matthew Macfadyen plays a conman declining into madness very well 

I thought it was ok, cast was solid but it's based closely on real events so mostly just people talking, zero surprise about how things panned out in the end.

Whatever you do, do not watch “Havoc” with Tom Hardy

I do not understand why people like Tom Hardy, he always seems like he's trying to compete with Nicolas Cage for the award for most acting in a drama, but at least Cage actually nails it about half the time so it's a coin toss whether it'll be good or bad. With Hardy, it always seems to be bad.
