Written, directed and executive produced by Tyler Perry, "The Oval" is a political drama series. It tells the story of U.S President Hunter Franklin and first lady Victoria Franklin, a power-hungry interracial couple, who present a perfect facade to the world while indulging in wildly scandalous behavior behind closed doors. Not to be outdone, their children -- Gayle and Jason -- bring their own brands of volatility and excess to the Executive Residence. The soap opera-style series also tells the stories of White House staff members whose lives become intertwined with those of the first family. Head butler Richard Hallsen is an ex-serviceman who struggles to maintain his integrity in the face of greed and corruption. In "The Oval," Tyler Perry supercharges the political genre with off-the-charts levels of scandal, sex, depravity and betrayal.

Edward L @Glyndower Dec 9 Anything with Tyler Perry before the title is unwatchable. Avoid. See more Jay M @RT57997853 02/17/2025 Crazy... but also crazy good. There's extreme drama beginning to end. There's story holes, unbelievable events and extreme stretching of drama & story. The show can be described as a tv drama torture porn except you're the one mostly receiving the torture, and yet you still wanna know what happens. Crazy, crazy, crazy. See more Elizabeth A @RT50951151 02/02/2025 Is there a place to put a minus sign before the star, or even no star at all? The movie is wack, storyline is terrible, very poor characters and acting skills, like what the hell are U guys doing? What is thisssss?
