When does Tanner '88 return?

Tanner '88 is a political mockumentary miniseries written by Garry Trudeau and directed by Robert Altman. It purports to tell the behind-the-scenes story of the campaign of fictitious former Michigan U.S. Representative Jack Tanner, played by Michael Murphy, during his bid to secure the Democratic Party's nomination for president of the United States. Many political figures of the time appear (some in cameos, some extended), including Bruce Babbitt, Bob Dole, Kitty Dukakis, Gary Hart, Jesse Jackson, and Pat Robertson. Tanner does not win the nomination, but does run a credible race.
