“The West Wing” (NBC)

This is the granddaddy of all political dramas. With a star-studded cast including Martin Sheen, Rob Lowe, and Allison Janney, this show goes into very in-depth episodes that echo real-life political scenarios, such as the complex friendship between Supreme Court justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Antonin Scalia. Each episode feels like a movie with how deep the plot goes, so be prepared to buckle in if you get addicted to this one.

Also, as a side note, even the opening is presidential!
