Alpha House (Seasons 1–2)

Alpha House (2013) is a political comedy you can watch online on iFILM, created by Garry Trudeau — the cartoonist behind Doonesbury. Four Republican senators share a rented D.C. house during congressional sessions. The arrangement is meant to save money. It mostly just creates new problems.

John Goodman plays a senator from North Carolina, a former basketball coach who is more comfortable running a press conference than navigating a budget committee. His housemates are all fighting their own fires: a looming indictment, a re-election race going sideways, a gaffe the opposition has already clipped and looped. One of Amazon's earliest original series, the show brought Trudeau's Pulitzer-winning satirical edge to live-action television. Stream Alpha House online on iFILM.
