A very gritty earthy show ... no frills ... no apologies... for dealing with issues that are at odds with popular thinking.
Challenges the moral compass in every episode.... Asks to the viewer to evaluate right and wrong in the under belly of society as it effects real life...
Does the show get it right ? no ... Are the characters Angels? ..no...
This is not Blue Bloods where the good guys win.... or the "good guys" are bloodless... In fact there is only a story of a family lineage
