“I know things that could tear this country apart!” “Who really killed JFK?” HBO has revealed the first official trailer for an upcoming political comedy series about Watergate, called White House Plumbers, making fun of the real inside job mistakes from the perspective of Nixon’s lackeys. Debuting in early 2023 on HBO. The White House Plumbers tells the story of how Nixon’s own political saboteurs and Watergate masterminds, E. Howard Hunt (Woody Harrelson) and G. Gordon Liddy (Justin Theroux), accidentally toppled the presidency they were zealously trying to protect. The cast also includes Domhnall Gleeson, Kiernan Shipka, Ike Barinholtz, Yul Vazquez, David Krumholtz, and Lena Headey. This is a fun first trailer, definitely got my attention – I want to watch the series. Harrelson seems to be just perfectly cast in this, having a rollicking good time in this role. The creators of “Veep” are back with another clever series.
