Are you a fan of shows like The Sopranos, Mad Men, Dexter, Breaking Bad, and Narcos? One of the shows you have to thank for paving the way for them to find success on the small screen is David Greenwalt & John McNamara's 1996 drama Profit. Running for five initial episodes on FOX (with the remaining four unaired episodes finally seeing the light of day in 2002), the series focused on Adrian Pasdar's Jim Profit, a new junior executive at Gracen & Gracen (G&G), a multinational conglomerate with a great public image to hide its dark business practices.

In a world of liars, cheaters, and ladder-climbers, Profit was always one step ahead of those around him. To say that he was a character you found yourself rooting for because he was doing nothing more than turning the game on itself would be an understatement- and calling out the hypocrisies ("The line most people say they won't cross… it's usually something they've already done when they thought no one was watching"). And yet there was always that other part of your brain that couldn't wait to see Profit taken down- a true testament to Pasdar's performance. And as for Profit sleeping inside a shipping box at night? A twisted mix of heartbreak and horror in my mind:
