The Spoils of Babylon Season 1 Episodes

6 Episodes 2014 - 2014

This spoof of miniseries that chronicle the dynastic, multigenerational sagas of dysfunctional families is a grand spectacle. Each episode is introduced by "Spoils" author Eric Jonrush (Will Ferrell) and the adventure commences with entrepreneur Jonas Morehouse (Tim Robbins) hoping to strike it rich in the oil fields of Texas, while his adopted son, Devon (Tobey Maguire), begins an affair with his daughter, Cynthia (Kristen Wiig). Later, World War II breaks out and Devon enlists, is shot down over the Pacific and becomes a POW. In England after the war, Devon meets and marries Lady Anne, who is literally, a mannequin (voiced by Carey Mulligan). An enraged Cynthia vows revenge and a showdown is imminent. Business booms, Cynthia's diabolical and duplicitous son Winston (Haley Joel Osment) takes over management of the Morehouse Conglomeration and the potboiling melodramatics boil over into an explosive conclusion.
