What’s This TV Show About?

A political comedy from creator Joshua Michael Stern, airing on EPIX, Graves stars Nick Nolte, Sela Ward, Skylar Astin, Heléne Yorke, Chris Lowell, Callie Hernandez, Ernie Hudson, Roger Bart, and Nia Vardalos. The story centers on Richard Graves (Nolte), a former President of the United States, his wife Margaret (Ward), and their children Olivia (Yorke), and Jeremy (Lowell). Twenty-five years after the fact, President Richard Graves has an epiphany and decides to clean up his legacy, just as Margaret decides the time is right for her to pursue her own political career. Now, she’ll have to campaign — all the while handling her husband as he turns over a new leaf.

 

 

Telly’s Take

EPIX isn’t part of the Nielsen ratings, so it’s difficult to predict whether they’ll cancel or renew Graves for season three. Flying blind, I think it will score a third season. Along with Berlin Station, Graves was one of the first two original scripted series on the premium cable channel, which has since added Get Shorty. It’s clear they’re trying to build up their programming slate, so it makes sense for them to give it every chance. Still, that’s just speculation, so I’ll keep an eye on the trades and update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free updates on any Graves cancellation or renewal news.

12/21 update: EPIX has cancelled Graves after two seasons. Details here.
