The way this show enacts that frustration, though, often lapses into tediousness, closer to the worst goopy grandeur of "Dawson's Creek" than the energetic cleverness of "The O.C."

As Hannah Arendt famously put it, when this happens, nothing can be believed anymore: One could make people believe the most fantastic statements one day, and trust that if the next day they were given irrefutable proof of their falsehood, they would take refuge in cynicism; instead of deserting the leaders who had lied to them, they would protest that they had known all along that the statement was a lie and would admire the leaders for their superior tactical cleverness.
