SYNOPSIS
Inspired by recent worldwide economic events, the acclaimed third season of the award-winning legal thriller stars two-time Emmy®-winner Glenn Close as litigator Patty Hewes. Confronting the most challenging case of her illustrious career, Patty, along with trusted lieutenant Tom Shayes (Tate Donovan), must face off against the manipulative Tobin family empire — matriarch Marilyn (Lily Tomlin), son Joe (Campbell Scott) and the clan’s loyal attorney Leonard Winstone (Martin Short). When former protégée Ellen Parsons (Rose Byrne) is also pulled into the maelstrom, she discovers she hasn’t escaped Patty Hewes after all.
Damages made its FX network debut on July 24, 2007. The first season saw the show garnering three Emmy Awards (including a win for Close), while the second season also boasted another win for Close.
