Okay, I am a HUGE KK fan. I have watched all her stuff and that is why I had to check out Burden Of Truth. When I read the description and heard the creators comparing it to Erin Brockovich, I was super pumped to see this because I loved that movie.
Season 1 is not a high octane thrill ride. It's more of a stroll down the parkway with some mysteries along the way. It takes it's time, BUT, give the material, I think it was quite appropriate in doing so.
There are some odd story lines that weren't needed or weren't properly inserted into the show, but it still delivered entertainment wise.
As the lead, Kristin holds her own, and Peter Mooney is a fantastic co-star! The two play wonderfully off each other. Supporting cast rounds out the body of the show quite nicely.
Would I recommend Burden? ....I sure would! Some writing issues, but overall, the story was interesting, acting was on point and the cinematography was absolutely wonderful!
I am very excited for Season 2!

The story lines are intriguing and the acting is pretty good. I want to give it a higher rating because at the end of each episode I've looked forward to the next one; However, the lack of logic and common sense (particularly in the earlier episodes) as well as continuity issues prevents me from doing so. The yo-yo effect of both main characters' commitment to the case, the unrealistic reactions by some of the characters in some instances and the confusing timeline references distract me from what would otherwise be a thoroughly enjoyable viewing experience. I have the season 1 finale to watch yet and I believe the show has been picked up for a second season so I will look forward to that. I hope some of the flaws will be addressed for series 2 but, I also hope the overall look and feel won't be drastically altered. Some shows in the past have been tweaked into nonexistence by network brass and viewer opinions. This first season seemed to be generally headed in the right direction. "Burden of Truth" could have a long run if handled properly.
Addendum: The way I rate shows... I don't usually review anything less than a 7 because 6 would be a failing grade and I won't waste my time watching it. I'm old; I don't know how much time I've got left. Since I probably turned it off before getting even halfway through, it wouldn't be fair to rate or review it. 7 is watchable but I may go a while between episodes since, though somewhat entertaining, there are other shows more interesting or compelling. 8 would be a regular in my lineup. 9 is a must see and probably bingeable. 10 is just the epitome of superbity and headed for my all-time favorites list. I'm adding this to my reviews because it seems there are a lot of binary reactions to pretty much everything these days. I am not a like/unlike kind of guy. I see a lot of grays so if I give something a 10 it doesn't mean the only alternative is a 1.

It took a few episodes to settle in to this, but I got totally hooked! Kristin Kreuk is a fine actress and I liked the character of Joanna. Alex Carter ( I loved him in Black Harbour) boy, can he do a good nasty b-tard! Good plot with characters you can actually care about. Give me more!
Changed my rating to 10/10t

For being filmed in small town Manitoba and using many locals for numerous roles; it is surprisingly well done.
Great story and even touches on some taboo topics to do with white vs indigenous history in Canadian Prairies

Ms. Kreuk could read the phone book and still find a way to give it depth and power. Thankfully Burden of Truth gives her more compelling material, though sometimes only slightly.
The major downside of this series is that the story has been done many times before, big-city lawyer goes back to her small town and ends up getting wrapped into a mystery and staying. It's the plot of two dozen Hallmark movies and each time pretty much feels the same. The saving grace of the series is that the writing can pretty good, even if it's a play on old themes, and is performed to perfection by the cast. Ms. Kreuk consistently delivers incomparable performances in anything she's in, and Burden of Truth is no different. The show is easily worth watching for her alone.
