Sex & Violence

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.

The first series of episodes is very good, a balanced mixture of drama, personal and collective, where characters leave nothing for granted, everyone has a white and black side if not even a gray one, like real life (despite some quite too stressed aspects). Series 2 and 3 seem to have lost the sense which made the 1 quite intriguing. The worst part is series 3, the main plot about a set of "copy paper suicides", where fingerprints, biological traces and whatever seem not to exist. Same for the side plot of the mass murder, with not useful killing of a guy. Everything quite pointless, just a poor libidinous eye catcher for male nudity appreciation in various stages of fitness.

This is just a mini series. That sucks bad. This show is by far the most sexiest show on TV right know,It has girl on girl sex,guy on guy sex,girl on guy sex. The violence has more of a real aspect to it then the other crap cop shows like ncis/law and order..etc.. And its Canadian Support the Canadian film making folks. I'm very upset there is not a huge season of shows..I'm hoping however they come. I am hooked..Well I suppose I did not say enough there needs to be 10 lines on here for a review. I have this recorded on my pvr,I have been waiting for tonights episode since a week now...WOW...WOW...I have never seen the real life situations shown on TV like they do this show,I got it bad for the girl cop to..I want her to take me down..

Has there ever been a television show that was available NOWHERE? Why don't they want anyone to watch this? It's full of big name stars and sounds terrific.
