Netflix has it all. Erotic, trashy dramas like Obsession? Check. Sweaty, addictive reality shows like Physical 100? Check. Incredible black comedies like Beef? Check.

Kate will have to diffuse international crises, forge strategic alliances in London, and adjust to her new place in the spotlight — all while trying to survive her marriage to fellow career diplomat and political star Hal Wyler (Rufus Sewell).”
