Dirty Sexy Money was a dramatic television series that aired on ABC from 2007 to 2009. It followed the lives of the wealthy and influential Darling family, who were the epitome of American privilege and power. The show revolved around the family patriarch, Tripp Darling, played by Donald Sutherland, and his personal lawyer, Nick George, played by Peter Krause, who was hired to protect the family's interests.

The show was set in New York City, and it often explored the themes of family dynamics, politics, and the corrupting nature of money and power. The show's characters were all deeply flawed and complex, and the audience was often left guessing about their motives and true intentions. The show was both a drama and a satire, and it often mixed humor with darker themes like infidelity, drug addiction, and murder.

Peter Krause played Nick George, the main protagonist of the show. Nick was a successful lawyer who had been hired to protect the Darling family's interests. He became embroiled in the family's scandals and dysfunction, and his role often became more complicated as the show progressed. Krause was charismatic and likable in the role, and he brought a level of depth and nuance to the character that made him relatable to viewers.

Donald Sutherland played Tripp Darling, the patriarch of the Darling family. Tripp was a powerful and wealthy businessman who had a lot of secrets and schemes going on under the surface. Sutherland played the role with a mix of charm and menace, and he was often one of the most intriguing characters on the show. Tripp's relationship with his family was complex, and it was often unclear where his loyalties lay.

Jill Clayburgh played Letitia Darling, Tripp's wife and the matriarch of the Darling family. Letitia was a former beauty queen who was struggling with substance abuse and mental health issues. Clayburgh played the role with sensitivity and vulnerability, and she brought a lot of depth to the character.

The Darling children were played by William Baldwin, Natalie Zea, Glenn Fitzgerald, Seth Gabel, Samaire Armstrong, and Zoe McLellan. Each of the children had their own unique storylines and struggles, and they often clashed with each other and with their parents. The youngest child, Brian, played by Glenn Fitzgerald, was particularly memorable, as he struggled with drug addiction and often acted as a foil to his more successful siblings.

Lucy Liu joined the show in its second season as Nola Lyons, a high-powered attorney who was hired to take over the Darling's legal affairs. Blair Underwood was also a recurring character in the show, playing Simon Elder, a rival tycoon who often clashed with the Darling family.

Dirty Sexy Money was a critically acclaimed show that was praised for its sharp writing, complex characters, and blend of drama and satire. However, despite its critical success, it struggled in the ratings, and it was ultimately canceled after two seasons. Nevertheless, the show remains a cult favorite among fans of character-driven dramas and is still available to stream on various platforms.
