...more reminiscent of Allen Drury than John Dos Passes, it does present a complex narrative with surprising clarity. The Washington settings, from the Oval Office to the Georgetown salons, lend a nice air of authenticity. So do the script's lavish accounts of such Watergate minutiae as H.R. Haldeman's feud with Rose Mary Woods and Gordon Liddy's call-girl schemes. The heaps of dirt stuffed into the show amply convey the moral squalor...
