James Comey interviews with President Obama and gets the job of a lifetime, Director of the FBI. But two years into his tenure, the Bureau is plunged into two hugely controversial cases: "Midyear Exam," the investigation into Hillary Clinton's emails while serving as Secretary of State, and "Crossfire Hurricane," an investigation into Russia's ongoing attempts to derail the Presidential Election of 2016. Comey's decisions on those two cases will alter both his place in history and history itself. Series Premiere.

Season-only
James Comey awakens on November 9, 2016, now known nationally as "the man who got Donald Trump elected." With that hanging over him, he now must try to find a way to work with the new President. That grows complicated when it becomes clear that Trump wants to use Comey, the Bureau, and the Department of Justice for his own political aims - forcing these two men on a collision course whose result is as inevitable as it is tragic. Series Finale.

I watched the whole thing, and it was very worthwhile. Trump is portrayed as venomous and utterly sleazy, creepy beyond words. I think Comey should not have announced a new investigation of Hillary's emails just 12 days before the election, especially since the FBI knew that Trump was in bed with the Russians but chose not to announce that. Comey blew it, but I feel sad for his family. I don't feel sad for Comey.

This movie is a MUST see! It brings everything into the light. I would watch it over and over because it has so much information, can't miss any details.

Excellent. Even though most of us lived through this recent historic event, still it makes a profound statement of what really happened and how disgusting the whole affair was. Must see!
