Vindication

The directing of this tv series is something special. Every shot is detailed with illustration that really draw in the audience. The power of it is reflective of a cinema feature. It's great for binging, especially during quarantine. Todd Terry does a great job in the role struggling with a foundational aspect of the stories. And I identify with that. The writers were graceful and precise while the director created a robust atmosphere in a fresh look for tv shows. I am watching again this time for photography appreciation. I'm clearly weird like that..

A lot of shows I watch, I only half watch, half listen; they're essentially background noise while I do stuff on my phone or laundry. This show I actually give it my full attention,I want to hear what each character says and see what's happening as it's happening. I had to do something on my phone during an episode, thought I could leave show running, had to rewind because the little I missed, I wanted it.

That user's review is what got me to actually take the time out to watch the show, I wanted to see if what he said actually held weight. The show isn't bad at all, has a decent plot line and nice messages for the audience. It's obviously not mainstream, but overall it's still solid.

Feel free to give the show a chance, don't let @designfxsa's review turn you away, if you take a look at his profile it seems like he gives every show/movie a bad review.

Not a bad little mini series but where can I watch the rest of the season? My opinion, it was a little short, had a few camera bumps but all in all not bad.

Vindication is a unique crime drama, that centers around Detective Travis as he interviews the suspects and witnesses, exploring how it might have happened, and it is up to Detective Travis to discern the truth. The first season introduces the characters and the format of the show, and as the season progresses we get a deeper glimpse into Travis's personal and home life.

The episodes cover a variety of topics, with a different slant than your typical crime shows. I like how it keeps you guessing, because you only have access to the information that Travis does, so the answers aren't clear cut and sometimes he is wrong and has to backtrack.

Each of the episodes is half and hour, and does a great job with though provoking plots, with compelling teachable moments. The show is well done, directed more towards adults and older teens, with a variety of crimes presented realistically without all the explicit details, but in a ways that can be a great conversation starter about tough topics like sexting, emotional affairs, money, marriage, drug addiction, and PTSD. One of my favorite characters is Travis's wife, who is a firm Christian who lives what she believes.

A unique crime drama with family values and teachable moments, definitely worth checking out!
