The Treatment
A disgraced former founder tries to survive life after myth. The empire is gone. The Wikipedia page is not.
The Former is a limited series about the specific loneliness of the person the world has already decided about — and the messy, ungracious, sometimes darkly funny work of deciding otherwise.
In the tradition of prestige character studies: quiet on the surface, seismic underneath.
