I don't leave reviews often because sometimes I feel as if I can't out into words how a work of art affected me. I just finished this series and I was moved to tears. I don't mean like a few I mean I was sobbing. The love that the two characters had for each other and the fact that the time and circumstances didn't allow them to be together was truly heartbreaking I felt so crushed each and every time life separated them. Their love was pure. I was heartbroken at the fact that they never got to achieve full happiness with each other. The character of Tim was so pure so good so deserving of a happy ending and in a way I guess he did get one knowing how Hawk really felt but it was crushing all the same. I kept wanting and waiting for Hawk to tell Tim that he loved him and the fact that that never came also hurt me. I will think of this show often because of how good it was and how complex the characters were. I felt that in the end we knew how Hawk really felt without him telling us. It would have been nice to get one scene with everything out in the open but life is not always that way. I highly recommend this show and think it's something a lot of people should watch. I have not seen many shows that comment on the AIDS crisis from the 80s and 90s but the way they discussed it here was so heartbreaking also. I could go on and on but each character and actor in this were very very very good. Please watch.

If I'm being honest I initially got into this show because I love Manny Montana as an actor. However, that is not the reason that I stayed watching it. This show unlike many other shows in it's category constantly brings up justice and who serves justice. Is it the federal agents? Is it the law? Is it the gangs and the other criminals? More often than not all of the agents take matters into their own hands and serve justice themselves. Agent Warren is constantly trying to maintain the balance and ensure accountability but this is so hard to do when you have reagents like Briggs. Briggs is the type of character that you call WHENEVER it hits the fan and you need someone to cover up something horrible that you did. He makes the rules themselves and justifies it all for a good outcome. But what is a GOOD outcome? This show was a gem that many missed and the writers and everyone involved should be extremely proud of this project regardless of it's short time. This show will have you questioning who is what is good or bad and if the ends justify the means. The only problem I have with this show is why it ended so quickly and why more people didnt know how good it was.
