House of Lies ‘Gods of Dangerous Financial Instruments’

Will you be dazzled by this new Showtime series about a consulting firm? It may sound boring, but it’s not.

Pilot Episode Synopsis: Season 1 premiere. Marty and The Pod consult with a greedy New York bank. Can they get it done?

The House of Lies cast includes Don Cheadle, Kristen Bell, Ben Schwartz, Josh Lawson, and Dawn Olivieri.

House of Lies Synopsis: Charming, fast talking Marty Kaan and his crack team of MBA-toting management consultants are playing America’s 1 percent for everything they’ve got. They put the con in consulting as they charm smug, unsuspecting corporate fat cats into closing huge deals, and spending a fortune for their services.

Twisting most of the facts, spinning the numbers, and spouting just enough business school jargon to dazzle the clients, there’s no end to what this crew won’t do to and for each other, while laughing all the way to the bank. Nothing is sacred in HOUSE OF LIES, a hilarious, irreverent send-up of corporate America today.

The cast knows how to walk in unison. This is how we know they’re skilled.

The House of Lies Cast is looking sharp.

They don’t mess around.

Her name is Jeannie van der Hooven and don’t you forget it.

Would you look at Kristen Bell’s face there? That makes this one of the best Kristen Bell pictures on the whole interwebs.

Marty Kaan always gets the job done.

Megalyn Echikunwoke has a decidedly difficult last name to spell.

But her character sure is fine. Finger guns!

House of Lies “Gods of Dangerous Financial” premieres on Sunday January 8 at 10 pm ET/PT on Showtime.
