Synopsis
Gaslit (2022) is an American drama series about Watergate you can watch online on iFILM. At its center is Martha Mitchell, wife of the U.S. attorney general and the first insider to publicly tie the White House to the scandal.
Julia Roberts plays the Arkansas socialite whose loose talk nearly cost her life and her name; Sean Penn, buried under prosthetics, is her husband John Mitchell, torn between his wife and Nixon. The show views 1972 through the forgotten supporting players rather than the usual headline figures. Dan Stevens and Betty Gilpin fill out the cast, and Matt Ross directs the pilot.
Eight episodes drawn from the Slow Burn podcast — less about political intrigue, more about the people the machine chewed up. Worth it for Roberts and a nearly unrecognizable Penn. Stream Gaslit online on iFILM.
