Anatomy of a Scandal

Screenshot from Anatomy of a Scandal

Where: Netflix
What: Miniseries, 6 episodes, 60 mins.
When: Now
Genre: Drama
Why you should watch: Smart and sensational, if this series were a book, it would be a page-turner. A British take on The Good Wife scenario, Sienna Miller, no stranger to scandal herself, is strong and struggling as the wife determined not to be a cliché as the collapsing career of her entitled husband (played by Rupert Friend) upends their world. Michelle Dockery (Downton Abbey) icily plays a powerful attorney with her own secrets. The series ably demonstrates women’s often empty but essential search for justice.
