Booked

Booked is an American political drama that aired on Fox from September 26, 2011 to December 21, 2016, concluding with six seasons and 84 episodes. The series followed the lives of several high-ranking politicians during the trial of former First Lady Barbara Monaghan, who is being accused of leaking government secrets. FBI Agent Daniel Berkeley investigates the case and soon finds himself wrapped up in a conspiracy. The series is also notable in that each season consisted of 12 episodes (or in the fourth season's case, two "half-seasons" of 12 episodes each) and each episode encompassed one month's time, and each season encompassed one year. For most of the series, the following season premiere would take place almost immediately after the previous season finale. However, in the fourth season, the mid-season premiere jumped ahead two years from the mid-season finale, and in the series finale, a year time jump was included. The series received critical acclaim through most of its run and was nominated for multiple Primetime Emmy Awards.
