The commercials were enough to make me sick to my stomach, so I don’t and won’t watch it.

[cripplecreek]

Yeah, they’re just poor oppressed people pushed to extremes. yada yada yada.

[doc1019]

Low information voters will eat this crap up, no doubt.

[mykroar]

The previews sealed any chance I was gonna watch.

[WildHighlander57]

What network/channel is showing it?

Then I know what products not to buy...

[tomd2]

the creator of Tyrant is also the creator of Homeland, the HBO hit about a Manchurian candidate politician. Homeland is a remake of an Isreali show ‘Prisoner of War.’

Like Homeland, if you can accept the absurd premises of the creator then it will suck you in. Otherwise, its all hollywood IMO.

I suspect it's soon going to have such a libtard slant to it that it will be impossible to stomach. I saw where there is going to be a new series out on a female Secretary of State played by Tia Leoni who dresses and wears her hair and other things just like Hillary, an you better believe she is going to be one fantastic world saving Secretary of State! It's called Madam Secretary.

And there's another one like it by another network called State of Affairs, and yes, another blond...

I tried it and for me it fails as drama because I don’t care about any of the characters.

It also felt phony because for obvious reasons it cannot deal with the malign, corrosive influence of political Islam in any specific way.

The story is told from the Dictator’s Americanized son who is ashamed and horrified by his family. He reluctantly stays after his father dies to influence his sadistic brother who is now in charge.

I tried watching but can’t take the stupid wife and children side stories. Too trite and annoying. (same as the Homeland fake family that never rings true) Other than that, the series is just average, IMO. btw, poor acting as well.

I, personally, am muzzied out.

Heard the wife of the Pediatrician brother equate this mythical tyrannical country with the country without peace to ISRAEL. You had tone listening close, but, there it was.

I might have still been watching it (to see how it developed) until they introduced the, apparently de riguer, homosexual scene. I won’t bother watching anymore.

[Terry L Smith]

Saw the previews. No thanks.

FX had a hit with the series Fargo. Lots of ads on Fargo for Tyrant but to tell the truth I just aint interested in anything out of the middle east.

[CatherineofAragon]

Haven’t seen it. I wrote it off as soon as I saw the commercial.

I see enough of them around here, wrapped up in their bedsheets in the July heat. Don’t care to watch them on TV.
