Thought it was going to be so so but the tight storyline and suspense had me hooked - wished they carried on for more seasons. Only flaw was setting it in Atlantic Canada - where the number of crimes in a single episode likely don't occur in an entire year
Showed the real aspects of sex and violence in people's real lives. Also the actors had amazing bodies
Sex & Violence
Leaving the obvious till later this was a well written well acted gripping series of crime stories. It was a shame, but perhaps not unexpected, that several central characters were murdered just as it was getting interesting.
Now to tackle the sex, in the main this neither added nor subtracted and perhaps just made it more everyday, but of course limited this shows audience. I didn't find it either particularly prurient, interesting or totally gratuitous, but it had its moments, and it was certainly not titillating.
The violence was well handled in the main but why was it all dragged out in the last episode, we saw the same scene no less than 4 times.
Of course if the police had a serial killer suspect they would have thrown every resource at it and not taken their time.
My only other observation was practically the whole community was displayed as having little or no moral compass and this in reality is not the case.

This is just a mini series. That sucks bad. This show is by far the most sexiest show on TV right know,It has girl on girl sex,guy on guy sex,girl on guy sex. The violence has more of a real aspect to it then the other crap cop shows like ncis/law and order..etc.. And its Canadian Support the Canadian film making folks. I'm very upset there is not a huge season of shows..I'm hoping however they come. I am hooked..Well I suppose I did not say enough there needs to be 10 lines on here for a review. I have this recorded on my pvr,I have been waiting for tonights episode since a week now...WOW...WOW...I have never seen the real life situations shown on TV like they do this show,I got it bad for the girl cop to..I want her to take me down..
I caught an episode online and loved it; when I looked on all the usual places (iTunes, Hulu, Netflix, Google, etc.) I found that no one carries this and it's not available in the U.S. for some reason. Kind of a disappointment.
