Synopsis

As a young associate, Mitchell McDeere brought down the prestigious Memphis law firm of Bendini, Lambert & Locke, which operated as a front for the Chicago mob—and his life was never the same. After a difficult decade, which included a stay in the Federal Witness Protection program, Mitch and his family now emerge from isolation to reclaim their lives and their future—only to find that past dangers are still lurking and new threats are everywhere.

Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
Evengyny Thanks for the memories!
Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story
Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
Pocketplayer Yes, cable TV has raised the bar for dramas so high no network show can come close. The Blacklist is good, but falls short. This show is as good and possibly better. If you've watched Mad Men, Breaking Bad, Six Feet Under, The Wire, well the character development and writing is clearly for network TV. This isn't the fault of the actors. Juliette Lewis was a stretch for me playing the same role she always does, but hey, so does De Niro right? I really liked the show and Josh Lucas is money...excellent lead. He carries the show well. Where this show blew it is character development. The wife as a school teacher who seems always free to get involved in the cases. Really? They did not need this angle. The daughter is an excellent actress. Believable from scene one. This show could have been really good, but network TV wants to fail. This is classic pride before the fall. They will not give up their power and control to make a really good TV show and settle for mediocrity. This ain't 1985 anymore. They cannot get away with the A-Team type shows...we have reality TV for that now!
Ted_Parkinson This show had moments of intrigue and the whole 'conspiracy' thing is pretty interesting. Some episodes managed to build a good story arch that kept me interested for a while. The biggest problem is with the lead character Mitch McDeere. For a supposed smart lawyer he is dumber than a post. Every other episode requires him to get into some situation that everyone knows is very stupid but he "just has to do it" and ignores everyone's advice. And this is really the main plot driver: Mitch's bullheaded stupidity. If this were pulled out every 6th episode they might get away with it, but time after time it wears thin very quickly. The mixing of 'current' cases with the overall conspiracy theme is also awkwardly handled. We are not sure if it's a regular lawyer show, or a conspiracy show. It's BOTH and neither really work. The attraction and tension between Mitch and his wife is also pretty artificial. I was happy when this was canceled.
mendo49 I enjoy this program. It's refreshing to have a show that is intelligent and entertaining. I like the difference of the characters, the two brothers are as different as night and day, as well as the two women - a nice compliment. I did not read the book or see the movie, so I am not familiar with the storyline but it's interesting, nice twists and turns. A bit of an adjustment in showing the end of the story and then to the beginning, it keeps the show interesting.Unlike this show, so much of the programming on TV these days isn't worth watching - too stupid, too much sex, too many breasts, canned laughter, lame characters, spoiled children - young and old, idiot story lines, etc.Good show. I feel that this show is worth the time it took to register for this site and hopefully, it will encourage other people to watch this program, I hope it will not be canceled.
sdelforge i have watched all 6 episodes freaking HORRIBLE... horrible writing,story lines, and acting... wow they ruined this book... For a guy who finished top in Harvard he sure is an idiot and he need 3 clowns for partners... for a guy that got the mob thrown in jail for over billing but they came back with the same faces the same names just cause they wanted to live normal lives how can you live normal lives after the mob wants you dead just sounds stupid to me and how does he go from being a tax lawyer to wanting to defend criminals in the movie he made it clear he wanted to make MONEY!!! wow what a stupid show and it just gets dumber week after week... i think the only reason it has lasted this long is cause it is a spin-off from a good movie... hopefully no more season hell with that hopefully no more episodes!!!
