The State of the Union

I recently came upon an interview with Robert Greenblatt, Showtime's President of Entertainment, in which he talked about the network's upcoming series lineup. He had quite a bit to say about Tracey's new project for Showtime:

The official title is Tracey Ullman's State of the Union
The sketches are very short, no longer than a minute and a half
There will be recurring characters
A typical sequence might involve a visit with two women on an Iowa farm, then an interlude with Arianna Huffington in her boudoir, followed by a look-in on a Washington, DC, anchorperson (we must qualify that, you know)

Looks like I need to come up with a new acronym for the series -- TUSOTU or SOTU are the candidates to follow in the illustrious footsteps of TTUS and TTO.
