The subject is a touchy one but the handling doesn't feel tacky or clichéd.
The lead character talking about creating wealth, employment etc while playing fast and loose with large amounts of money, rings true.
The lead is compelling.
He and his lawyer have good chemistry.
The wife is middling and the daughter is OK.
But this is John Ralston's show.
His confrontations with other characters are played with a certain sincerity that leave you wanting more.
His bewilderment at being disowned by his parents, lame attempts at wheedling his wife, laughably obvious sophistry etc are all fun to watch.
Not life changing or thought provoking. Just entertaining.
Wish them well.
Thank you.
