Serien följer Tom och Louise, ett gift par som träffas på en pub omedelbar innan varje veckovecka terapi. I dessa korta möten konfronteras de med svåra sanningar om sitt äktenskap, samtidigt som de använder humor för att navigera genom utmaningarna. Genom episoderna avslöjas gradvis hur deras liv såg ut tidigare, vad som ursprungligen drog dem samman och vilka krafter som nu håller på att driva dem isär.
Brendan Gleeson spelar Scott, Patricia Clarkson gestaltar Ellen, och Esco Jouléy framträder som Jay. Serien består av tio episoder, var och en cirka tio minuter lång, vilket gör den till ett kompakt dramaprojekt utan långsiktigt tidsåtagande från tittarens sida.
State of the Union är märkt med åldersgränsen TV-MA och presenterar ett realistiskt porträtt av ett kämpande äktenskap genom kortare, fokuserade scener. Serien är tillgänglig på Netflix.
