Asked by EW what he watched when he needed a break from writing his memoir A Promised Land, the former president responded: "Better Call Saul, because of its great characters and examination of the dark side of the American dream.

And Watchmen and The Boys, for how they turn superhero conventions on their heads to lay bare issues of race, capitalism, and the distorting effects of corporate power and mass media. Oh, and the NBA playoffs — because it’s hoops!"
