The Hollowmen

''We don't vote for them, we don't even know their names and we're not sure what they do. But they wield enormous influence. They are the power behind the power. They are The Hollowmen.''

This Australian satirical TV show follows the business of the Prime Minister's Central Policy Unit, fictional political advisory personally set up by the Prime Minister to help him get re-elected. Like a funnier, more cynical Australian version of The West Wing.
