The First Lady
Paramount+

Let’s be frank: what woman in her wildest fantasies of global celebrity would want to be First Lady of the United States? Think of poor Jill Biden, looking tense while paddling barefoot with Carrie Johnson and the Johnson toddler. And all that awful public hand-clutching. The First Lady, a drama series on the new streaming platform Paramount+ (all 10 episodes available now) looks at what it was like for three of them: Eleanor Roosevelt, Betty Ford and Michelle Obama.
