The Endgame

MONDAY, FEB. 21, 10/9c, NBC

In this cat-and-mouse thriller,“the cat is a captive and the mouse has to figure out how she's being controlled," says executive producer Nicholas Wootton. Glamorous international criminal Elena Federova (Homeland's Morena Baccarin) is held at an übersecure FBI black site, but when we meet her, she's unleashed her gang to take control of NYC's leading banks. Dedicated FBI agent Val Turner (Ryan Michelle Bathe, All Rise)-so ethical that she turned her husband in for a bribe-saw Elena's handiwork in Africa and understands that the robberies are part of a mysterious master plan she is determined to disrupt. The question, says Wootton, "is whether Elena is doing bad things or actually something good. There's a lot of intrigue, but the [story's] heart really is the relationship between these women." - Ileane Rudolph

SUPER PUMPED: THE BATTLE FOR UBER

Sunday, Feb. 27,10/9c, Showtime

Rides goeth before a fall in this tale of billionaire Uber CEO Travis Kalanick (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), who presided over a toxic, sexist atmosphere at the ride-hailing company he helped found before being forced out in 2017. To prepare, the actor talked to colleagues of the entrepreneur. "He made spectacularly bad choices, but he [was also] beloved by a lot of his team. That complexity made him intriguing,"Gordon-Levitt says. The show, which costars Kyle Chandler, is about more than Uber. "Dudes preaching 'Win at all costs!' at the biggest tech companies are not doing good for the world." - KH
