The Trailer for 'COBRA' Promises A Timely Political Tale
Political drama COBRA arrives on PBS this October and, if the first trailer is any indication, it's going to feel uncomfortably timely for many of us.
The six-part drama, which aired on Sky One back in January, follows an elite government task force known as COBRA, which must respond to a terrifying, nationwide crisis in the United Kingdom.
COBRA apparently stands for Cabinet Office Briefing Room A, the room in which the government's leading experts, senior politicians, and crisis contingency planners must all gather when anything truly threatening or terrible goes down. In this story, a massive solar flare is causing power blackouts and disrupting things like the electronics that help keep plans in the air.
