Review of Boss ‘Slip’
“A ground swell already in motion” – this is the toxic rule of Kane that has created a swell of corruption. But these words aren’t shared between men in suits, the power-playing politicians.

Review of Boss ‘Swallow’
This episode starts better with a horse getting drugged and a tablet is forced down its throat. It’s a powerful image that’s also a nightmare. Mayor Tom Kane has wet himself in his sleep as his degenerative illness escalates.

Review of Boss ‘Listen’
I can’t remember the last overture that caught my attention so brilliantly. I could feel Gus van Sant’s limbs pin me down to the settee. This one is worth sticking with.
