Game of Silence

Promising few episodes but is getting slow and the plot is not interesting anymore. In one of the episodes a maintenance man is going in the basement to stop the water. Funny thing because the action of the show pretends to happening in Houston. News to the producers:houses don't have basements in Houston. None. No exception. There is no place Brendan close to Houston (where the characters are originally from. There is Brenham. Who ever checked these facts, did not do a good job. The scenes from jail abuse are too graphic and unnecessary. There are bad things happening in the jail system, but not to that extent. Exaggeration is the name of the game here.

I liked it and its twists and turns. A pity the second season was cancelled after the cliffhanger ending!

I have enjoyed Game of Silence. Good story, good plot, great acting. Almost up with the Brits. Not too many details on what happened in Quitman which is great because I get the idea and can't stand that kind of abuse. Why is this canceled and not the Kardashians or something else equally as mindless and limpid? The Brits are coming out with hit after hit. Well thought out, good plots, great shows on PBS. Its time for the US to come up with more in depth programs that are actually watchable. We do have a few intelligent people here; where is our minority bone? They could cancel Fallon and frankly about everything else. Perhaps they should consult with the Brits or hire some. The Night Manager was excellent and there are unlimited great books to draw from such as The Key to Rebecca to start. We are definitely in an artistic rut. We don't need Ghost Brothers.

well i just watched the pilot. And to be honest it does remind me a lot of the movie sleepers with brad Pitt. that movie is/ was great but to make a whole series out of it i do not know if that will work. the story with sleepers is identical After a prank goes disastrously wrong, a group of boys are sent to a detention center where they are brutalized; over 10 years later, they get their chance for revenge. it looks very much the same as a plot line but I will give the show a second and maybe even third episode chance to watch and then i will know more but for now it looks like they will take the sleepers route and make it a revenge story for abused boys. well you will hear more from me.

This is the best show in the drama genre to hit the small screen in quite some time. The show retains a certain amount of deep, hard hitting drama while bringing in some minor action from time to time. The story line may be a bit unoriginal, however, the events of the characters' pasts are still foggy as the season continues. Their pasts are slowly uncovered, bit by bit, as the show continues. In the first episode (and sprinkled throughout the rest of the series so far) had a few hard hitting, unforeseen moments which definitely was enough to capture an audience of anyone who enjoys drama or action television.

Two thumbs way up for this new drama, hopefully it can sustain its viewership and ratings enough to constitute a second season.
