‘Damages’ on AXN

Critics are calling thriller series ‘Damages’ the hottest drama on television. Voted the best drama in 2007 by the US People magazine, and described as an ‘extraordinary thrill ride’ and an ‘addictively watchable crime-series’, by Chicago Tribune and The New York Times. ‘Damages’ is a compelling legal eagle drama that will have you truly hooked right from the start.

Get to watch this great critics’ pick first and exclusively on AXN every Thursday at 11pm. Don’t expect your usual legal drama here. In ‘Damages’, a young and eager lawyer (Rose Bryne) gets entangled with a crafty power attorney and boss from hell (Glenn Close) in a high-profile litigation case. Glenn Close plays Patty Hewes, a devious power attorney who holds court at the top of a brutal and back-stabbing business.

Patty’s biggest case thus far is a huge class action suit against a billionaire employer (Ted Danson) by employees defrauded of their pension, and she is hell-bent on winning at any cost.

A strong-featured, coolly patrician blonde, Glenn Close spent her childhood and adolescence involved in the conservative Moral Re-Armament movement. Best recalled for her role as a deranged stalker in ‘Fatal Attraction’, Close has won an Emmy Award, three Tony Awards, and two Golden Globes; she has further been nominated for five Academy Awards, eight Emmys, and nine Golden Globes.
