Seven Seconds

If you watch a lot of good television, you will recognize this as one of the best. Intensely touches on the issue of race, relationships, and death. Heart-wrenching. Phenomenal, and most importantly believable acting. The episodes are sort of like a novel, you don't want to put them down.

Slow-paced but interesting show. Every character's personality is very well displayed and unique. My personal favorite is Michael Mosley's Fisher Rinaldi character. Very funny and sarcastic and excellent acting. Drug, hooker, thugs and corruption; everything you'd see from a project in the city

Any review less than a 6 is nonsense, this show is well done and deserves to be watched. We're there a few plot holes and semi unbelievable parts, yes. Was 90% of the show gritty and realistic, yes. It tackled revelant cultural topics while entertaining us, especially the last 4 episodes as the pace quickened and the characters grew more desperate. Watch it, can't imagine you being disappointed.

Based off the synopsis I didn't think I was going to like this show. I thought this show was going to be more social justice activism. I ended up really liking this show. I think the show did a really good job of giving a nuanced perspective of very complex issues, they did not try to dumb down the messaging to good and evil like some other shows and movies do. The show did a really good job of presenting all sides and letting the viewer come to their own conclusions. The show does not perceive to tell you what is right and wrong and what to think, they leave that up to the viewer to decide for themselves. The acting in this so was superb, especially Regina King, Russell Hornsby, and Michael Mosley. The dialogue was good but some of the New York accents were a little over the top, nothing too bad though. The story was good. The more episodes I watched the better the show got.

7.75/10 Stars

While it has got its plot inconveniences and some pacing problems, Seven Seconds is a crime drama that manages to be captivating, emotional, painful and thrilling all at the same time with great performances all around, while also making a bold statement on one of humanity's biggest modern day problems.
