Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With a lukewarm 6.7 out of 10 from audiences and a short run with a modest audience, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Made for crime-drama fans and anyone who likes to be kept guessing. If you loved The Lincoln Lawyer or Neagley, start here.
The mood
Tense, dark and gritty.
The pace
2 seasons: a few weeks of evenings, episodes of about 45 minutes, about 29 hours in all.
What might put you off
  • Rated TV-14. Probably too much for younger kids.
  • It was cancelled, so the story may not get a proper ending.

Notorious Los Angeles defense attorney Sebastian Stark becomes disillusioned with his career after his successful defense of a wife-abuser results in the wife's death. After more than a month trying to come to grips with his situation, he is invited by the Los Angeles district attorney to become a public prosecutor so he can apply his unorthodox-but-effective talents to putting guilty people away instead of putting them back on the street.
