Proven Innocent

Lots of trolling here. Only one episode and people can write it off so quick. Most shows take a few episodes before they get good. All of the shows out about law have been about finding people guilty. Its rare to have a show be based off of innocent people. It brings out the truth in our very faulty justice department. Trying to find the faults in the acting as some trollers here have mentioned, but i can't find the bad acting they are referring to. At least not the main characters. Don't listen to the 1 -5 star raters here. Take a chance and watch..and just like most shows, keep watching and it will get better and better. So far, i like it...

The bit parts are the best acted parts. Unfortunately the main character over acts her part and drags her costars with her. Too many sarcastic and angry lines and there is no character development at all. Could be good if the director gets to work and the writers learn to edit - just too many quick and underdeveloped plots happening.

So far so good, worth the watch. Intriguing, fast paced, good stories, good acting. Kelsey Grammar does well at playing the bad guy. Keep it going...

The show is good not great, but it is a TV show, it is there for entertainment and for that it does it's job. I am so glad I don't live in America where every thing is analysed for political reasons and nothing is taken on face value, must be a really tough way to live your life.

Injustice Defense Group in Chicago is a legal firm led by Madeline Scott (Rachelle Lefevre) who was herself falsely imprisoned. Her law partner Easy Boudreau (Russell Hornsby) exonerated her and her troubled brother Levi from their murder convictions. Ambitious D.A. Gore Bellows (Kelsey Grammer) was the prosecutor and is running for Attorney General on his way to the Governorship. He battles Madeline in court as more prisoners are exonerated. Bodie Quick (Vincent Kartheiser) is the investigator and Violet Bell (Nikki M. James) is the assistant/podcaster.

The show pushes the agenda way too hard. Stylistically, the podcast is too preachy. Substantively, the cases should be less black and white. The show needs finesse. The main saving grace is Grammer. He delivers evil with a small e. I like that it's more ambition and arrogance rather than viciousness. The Madeline side is fine but it could do with more questions about her actual guilt. Her innocence is so absolute so that it lacks the tension of a mystery. Even the reveal of the killer is obvious from five episodes away. There is no subtlety in the writing at all. Otherwise, it's compelling enough until the last episode.
