Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Political Animals is a limited series on USA Network starring Sigourney Weaver as Elaine Barrish Hammond, an American former First Lady, politician, and Presidential candidate who is currently serving as Secretary of State. This may sound familiar. The show also follows her ex-husband Bud Hammond, a former Democratic President, their twin sons, the 3 minutes older T.J. who is gay and struggles with sobriety and the workaholic Doug who is devoted to working for his mother, as well as Elaine's mother, Margaret Barrish. The series follows the Hammond family through the travails of political intrigue and awkward family life.As of November 2012, USA Network announced that, due to lower-than-hoped-for ratings, the show would remain a mini-series. | |

| Political Animals / int_7eebe99c | comment |
The Alcoholic: Margaret (Elaine's mother) and her grandson T.J. both drink heavily throughout the series. Margaret rarely goes a scene without either having a drink in her hand or having one made for her (usually by T.J.). Her stories about her youth suggest she was a Hard-Drinking Party Girl, now grown into a snarky Lady Drunk. However, she highly dislikes the idea of a person getting themselves in deep enough to have an addiction, having witnessed Elaine's father self-destruct due to his drug addiction, and she bluntly informs T.J. that he's headed down the same path as his grandfather if he doesn't get a hold of himself soon. That being said, she has apparently struggled herself when attempting to abstain from alcohol in solidarity with T.J. | |
