Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

TaryBiggBall It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

Maleeha Vincent It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

CitizenShane Every episode brought me to tears. This is a very well constructed, perfectly planned and produced series. Living in Australia, I had heard of some of these horrific active shooter stories on the news, but some of them I had only heard fragments of the actual story. This was a real eye opener for me. Each episode delves into the police procedures and the issues they run into dealing with an active shooter situation. This show will break you, over and over again. There have been countless other shootings across America since this series ended production. It's time to do something about gun laws...

dianasprain This series uses a combination of authentic video feeds, news media, official public safety media (audio, video), role-playing, and interviews with involved personnel (victims, families, public safety). It is gut-wrenching and some scenes are not suitable for young children.As a member of Public Safety, I feel it is important to understand what happened in order to deal with possible future incidents.One never knows when the next one will occur. Be alert, be aware.The producers aren't afraid to tackle the tough calls. Sadly, there are enough of these events to keep this series going for a while. Remember, active shooter incidents are not a new to our society.

pensacolacomputer This is one of the best series I've seen in a while, and will continue to watch weekly. I honestly have not felt so much emotion and even my Marine best friend who's as tough as they come couldn't hold it back and had the tears flowing. I love the way it shows how people came together in such horrible situations and how it brings out the true American spirit when in crisis. We need more shows like this on TV. I believe there is a hero in all of us.Who knows, maybe this series will make a mass murderer think before acting on racism, or radicalization, or mental illness. I sure hope so. Highly recommended.

mikeos3 the previous reviewer provides no citation for his questionable assertions. I would just comment as follows:Firstly Cairn is not in Canada as he seems to think, but in Australia and secondly, the tragic murders he refers to were a terrible domestic incident by a disturbed mother involving suffocation and have no relevance in gun crime discussion.The series under review provides a welcome entry in a very serious debate about the almost medieval level of violence in what is considered to be a civilized nation.
