K Street
K Street is both a real location in the United States capital of Washington, DC, and a Home Box Office (HBO) television series inspired by the physical location.
Physical location
K Street, especially in the Northwest quadrant of Washington, has a reputation as being the location of the offices of numerous lobbyists; it is a business district.
Television show
As a television show, K Street was inspired by the location. The plot revolved around lobbyists, some played by political figures such as James Carville and Mary Matalin; it also featured cameos from numerous politicians. The show was quite popular in the Washington, DC area, but failed to find a broader audience.
It was produced by famous actor George Clooney, whose appearance in DC caused considerable stir, with frequent mentions in the light-news "Style" section of the Washington Post.
