Kept my interest for seven hours today. Really well done from the opening to closing scene, nothing was gratuitous, everything and everyone mirrored the challenges we all face, in some fashion or another, as individuals, as well as among peers and our family.

I can't get enough of this show, cookie cutter program formatting is nowhere to be found in this realistic, gritty and intelligent series. I respect shows like this that use dialogue to forward to story lines leaving it to the audience to understand/determine the terminology and form their own judgement of the characters' actions that are believably human in all regards. I've not tired of this series after years of watching, as I do of so many American series in the first season where writers are not only lazy but don't appreciate the importance of utilizing their platform to promote their viewers to develop and use critical thinking skills, they end up being mindless programs but still call them dramas.
