I LOVE this show. As an almost 60 yr old daddy's girl this show touches home. Wow, I can go into dialog about the similarities but the supple differences allowed me not lose my dad for a long as Paige lost her dad. The similarities in our dad's make me think someone found the space in my heart that hold these wonderful memories and broadcasted them on Unprisoned. Season 2, final episode had be laughing and crying and gushing and smiling and finally shocked. Paige's mom is here....WHAT??? I can not wait for season 3. I lost my dad 2 years ago. I'm still crushed.

EXCELLENT EXCELLENT DOCUMENTARY! I wish I had posted this review when I saw the documentary several years back. My son was in college at the time but my son and I dealt with everything that is in this documentary and worse. Not many people new about it so the theater was not crowded but at the end of this movie there wasn't a dry face in the theater, man or woman, and I was sobbing. I fought for my son in this system and trust me you must fight for your child. Being a black parent raising a black male in the public school system is horrendous and terrifying. We lived in a fairly diverse area where black children were the minority and still whenever I went to my son's ELEMENTARY school there were only little tiny black boys and girls sitting on the disciplinary bench outside of the principal's office, it was extremely sad to see. White, hispanic, asian and indian children were good but only our kids are misbehaved (bad)? You see where I am going with this? Our children are taught before they understand why they are being (mis)treated differently. In spite of me being a very involved and present parent it was heartbreaking to see and deal with this level of treatment from the very TEACHERS who should be teaching, preparing and protecting OUR children. I saw a review from someone who mentioned a "flaw" in this documentary, to be clear, this treatment is across the board no matter what school our children may attend but in the public school it is so much worse. It is an open abuse of power and position over our babies. And It is not hidden from the other teachers because they are all on board with it (this exclusive treatment). Whether you agree or disagree it absolutely is OUR truth. It absolutely was OUR journey. Per the movie, It is a fact that the bad teachers are passed around and allowed to mistreat the system and our children over and over again, complaint after complaint, the "Lemon Dance". It is a fact that the machine that makes the decisions for our schools, our children, are completely disconnected from the public schools' system itself. There is so much I can say here. Thankfully my son graduated, started his business in high school, credited out of courses at a top school in his field in this country no thanks to the public school system and the teachers who teach in them.

This is one of my most favorite shows. I've watched the reruns so much I know what every episode, heist and outcome is just from the title or description. Needless to say I was beyond ecstatic to hear about Redemption but am very very sad to hear that Aldis Hodge's character (Alec Hardison) is only returning for the first 2 episodes. I love the characters and their growth however I will miss Hardison tons. I like that the writers maintained the integrity and authenticity of the original pre-redemption series. To the writers, I'd VERY MUCH like to see more seasons. I'm watching it now, smiling and waiting for the additional 8 episodes to drop on Oct. 8. #Ahugefan
