She was fantastic in HBO's Show Me a Hero. Well worth watching for many reasons.

I guess that's why at intake she asked him if he was afraid for his well-being/life. If he'd said yes, I assume (dangerous I know) he'd be put in some sort of solitary situation (which would also be awful).

I don't know that there would be anywhere else to send him. The same is true in Los Angeles. There's one god-awful jail that people rot in waiting for their trial. This is really all about what happens when you can't afford good representation and also have no knowledge of the system. If Stone hadn't been there,…

Hahahahaha! Our cat yawned. Clearly a sigh of agony.

I am right there with you on both my annoyance with the pilot and now my love for the last two episodes. All the nuance creates a foreboding that is beyond compelling. Not to mention, who ever cast this needs an Emmy.

If it helps, I liked episode 2 much more because I find the acting and the depiction of the system far more realistic than the crime itself.

Shouldn't you edit to add William Carlos Williams' name?

And he starred in it. Definitely the most by one person ever.

Well, you're right. We disagree. Time after time it was she who brought up that they were supposed to be off duty. Which isn't to say she isn't good at her job, just that the reason they pulled him over was such a small infraction, especially in NYC. Anyway, it clearly doesn't matter as that's the least of the…

I see. We disagree. I, for one, have started wearing a BLM button daily, have attended BLM meetings, and am on a BLM rapid response team. Now this may have happened without this season, but I have to tell you, it did impact me and while real world events compelled me further, it's mighty cynical to suggest that no…

Isn't that the whole point though? No matter what, it goes off the rails. 1% have been convicted of murder (or less) even with overwhelming evidence. Is it any wonder that most people do not and can not trust our system when it comes to accountability for the police?

But would he have done the same if it had been Piper who came to Suzanne's defense? I think that's part of what we're supposed to question and why, on some level, it's still, for many, a murder.

So, if she hadn't died by suffocation, then the same criticism wouldn't apply? Then it could go back to being about how the whole system corrupts everyone involved? Are you only rejecting this decision because it felt ham-fisted or because you truly don't believe the show was trying to create empathy about…

Did you watch the entirety of this season? Your words don't seem to have any basis in what actually occurred. A simple mistake? Good God, I have never ever been more upset by the death/murder of a fictional character, and the whole point was about the systemic injustice of her incarceration and death. Who are all…

I couldn't agree with you more.

Whew! I was mortified when I thought it was this season.

I did watch the rest of the premiere and like others, I'm very fond of the acting at the end. Your way of seeing it might make it a bit more palatable. I'm willing to wait and see, but I still don't have the excitement that most seem to feel.

Yeah, I think Duante said it best, it's all the secrets. Sorry my post was far too specific, but I just felt the reviewer missed the mark on this part.

But that's after they stopped him. My point was they wouldn't have stopped him at all when they were just about to go off their shift.

Isn't the reason they didn't want to press charges because Jeremy knows the truth about how/why Mary died? Wasn't the look because if she did press charges, it would destroy Quinn?
