Running Point - Pilot

In what feels like Netflix's version of a sitcom (with broad comedy and a concerted effort to seem edgy by shoehorning in as much swearing as possible), the "Pilot" episode of Running Point introduces us to Isla Gordon (Kate Hudson) as the least fucked up member of her family, a family that runs a professional basketball team. Thrown into the role of president after her eldest brother's (Justin Theroux) cocaine bender becomes national news, Isla finally gets to put her basketball IQ to use much to the chagrin of her other brothers (Scott MacArthur and Drew Tarver) jealous they weren't tapped for the position. The opening episode is mostly about introducing the characters, setting up a new path for Isla and the Waves, and also teasing one more surprise for the family which will be sprung in the season's second episode.
