Sex & Violence

I caught an episode online and loved it; when I looked on all the usual places (iTunes, Hulu, Netflix, Google, etc.) I found that no one carries this and it's not available in the U.S. for some reason. Kind of a disappointment.

This is not a cop show , its a show about domestic violence and people who are affected by it,cops, social workers and the victims. It is a depressing show and even the sex is depressing. How anyone can think the sex displayed here is at all erotic or arousing has a screw loose. In saying that , even though it's hard watching it , it is one of the best drama's i have seen this year and if you can handle the subject matter and the graphic nature , then you are rewarded for your time.I'm pretty sure that it's not only Canada where this happens and if nothing else comes from this show then the awareness the show will raise about Domestic violence is enough

Sex & Violence

Leaving the obvious till later this was a well written well acted gripping series of crime stories. It was a shame, but perhaps not unexpected, that several central characters were murdered just as it was getting interesting.

Now to tackle the sex, in the main this neither added nor subtracted and perhaps just made it more everyday, but of course limited this shows audience. I didn't find it either particularly prurient, interesting or totally gratuitous, but it had its moments, and it was certainly not titillating.

The violence was well handled in the main but why was it all dragged out in the last episode, we saw the same scene no less than 4 times.

Of course if the police had a serial killer suspect they would have thrown every resource at it and not taken their time.

My only other observation was practically the whole community was displayed as having little or no moral compass and this in reality is not the case.

Showed the real aspects of sex and violence in people's real lives. Also the actors had amazing bodies

Thought it was going to be so so but the tight storyline and suspense had me hooked - wished they carried on for more seasons. Only flaw was setting it in Atlantic Canada - where the number of crimes in a single episode likely don't occur in an entire year
