Hightown

I was about to stop watching this in S1, E4, glad I didn't because season 2 really stepped it up. I mean it was like day and night compared to the ridiculous S1, where every character annoyed me, especially the fish cop. A lot of times movies becomes worse when a particular character dies, that wasn't the case here in S1. I was surprised he lasted as long as he did.

The gay sex remain wild and sexy, which was the most I've ever seen in a crime series, but the heterosexual remain blah and boring, had to ff it even when they were laying in bed, and I'm heterosexual. Lol

I couldn't believe how the energy turned up S2, along with the music theme and how crazy things were happening all over the place reminded me of White Lotus. Had me laughing out loud.

1 thing, I wasn't pleased how the initial killer was being portrayed as some type of gentle caring bear after savagely murdering women, that really irked me to the end.

All I can say is hang in there or just skip S1, you'll have a good time.

We saw the description for this show, cops, drug dealers, ect. And we figured we'll try it out.

Gave it a shot and we were weren't disappointed.

It is one of our favorite shows now.

Besides the great acting and writing, this show is a master class in pacing.

Some shows need half a season to get going but Hightown never drags, never gets bogged down, the pace of the story is perfect.

Nor is it too fast and relentless to make the storyline confusing.

Cheers to the showrunner, directors and the editors.

Once again , this show is "A Master Class" on pacing!

I am really looking forward to season four!

Maybe it's because too many of you only watched one episode (if that) but I found even the pilot well done. Maybe it's the fact that the main character is a lesbian. I don't know but this is a good series with good characters, excellent acting and great production values. Give it a try and ignore the haters.

After reading all the great reviews for Hightown I thought I'd finally give it a chance. I'm glad I did because it was definitely worth watching. It's a crime drama about the war on drugs that has everything from drug use, drug dealers, corrupt cops, murders, etc. This is a lot better than your average crime drama because of its writing but mostly because of acting performances from its two stars, James Dale Badge and Monica Raymond. Hightown will hook you from the very first episode and hold on to you until the end. I'm glad that's it's already been renewed for a third season because it definitely deserves it.

This show is really good you need to give it a chance!! More people should know about it, AND OF COURSE I AM WATCHING IT BECAUSE OF MONICA RAYMUND

First of all there's a lots of unnecessary sex scenes that's the one thing I'm not satisfied with, everything else is really good I first thought that this show is a bad show but now it's one of my favourites, I started watching the first episode a year ago but didn't like it, I had to rewatch the first episode multiple times from time to time when I was bored and I have nothing to watch, and then had to watch the episodes randomly until I like it, but these days I started watching it again from episode 1 and in order, and I found out it is a really good show, now I'm waiting for s3.
