Jack & Bobby

If "greatness is thrust upon us," as Winston Churchill once said, then it stands to reason that those who are destined for greatness are rarely aware of it. Take Jack and Bobby McCallister for example: two bright young brothers growing up under the watchful eye of their eccentric single mother Grace McCallister. Grace's personality is a force of nature destined to shape both of these young men's lives and secure one a place in the history books - as President of the United States.

Directed by Brad Meltzer, Vanessa Taylor, Greg Berlanti, Steven A. Cohen, Jack & Bobby leans on a strong ensemble — Christine Lahti, Matt Long, Logan Lerman — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2004.
