BrainDead

This isn't what I thought it would be. There were no zombies dressed as politicians. There weren't any zombies staggering around Capitol Hill with a shotgun finale in the Oval Office. But the show was still very clever and original; with just the odd bit of gore to keep the horror fans happy. And the political side of the series was well written and would work even without space bugs trying to take over the world. It even drifts off towards the end of the series and the invasion seems to take a back story; there's even a whole episode where Gustav wasn’t even featured. I was secretly hoping for the baby to be infected and that we would witness an infant CHI or a demon spawn child. It's a shame that the producers decided not to commission another series; the settings would be perfect for them to slowly mock different aspects of American society.
