Your Honor

Good story, if not a little far fetched, great acting by Bryan Cranston, I loved the New Orleans setting. The pacing was good too, never seemed to drag too much. Some of the story I didn't agree with, I thought the police corruption was too blatant and not believable, the crime family wasn't very convincing and the kid when he danced was weird lol. Overall a decent show though.

Unfortunately, "Your Honor" was extremely disappointing for me... I watched the show because I saw an interview by Bryan Cranston where he was talking about the show and I thought it sounded quite interesting.

The premise of the series is indeed incredibly exciting and with better authors one could certainly have created a nerve-wracking and impressive series, but the authors really mess everything up here.

The series has everything else - good actors, nice sets, good camera shots, etc.

But when it comes to the whole story - the most important part of a series - it doesn't convince me at all... There are so many scenes that just don't make sense and not just when you analyze them, but when you think about them at all - which the writers apparently just didn't do.

The writing of this series is honestly one of the worst I've ever seen in a series. All the characters are completely dumb just so the secret doesn't unfold.

The points are really only for the other aspects mentioned (acting, camera, set, etc.)

A classic story of how the privileged and powerful will go to great lengths to protect their own, even if they did something as horrible as what this stupid kid did.

Your Honor is a legal drama television series that premiered on Showtime in December 2020. The show is based on the Israeli series Kvodo and is set in New Orleans, Louisiana. The main character is Judge Michael Desiato, played by Bryan Cranston, who is a respected judge in the city. The story begins when Michael's son Adam, played by Hunter Doohan, is involved in a hit-and-run accident that kills a member of a notorious organized crime family.

To protect his son, Michael makes a series of questionable decisions that put him in the middle of a dangerous and complex web of lies, corruption and crime. The judge must balance his duty to uphold the law and his duty as a father, while also navigating the city's complex legal system and dealing with the various factions vying for power in New Orleans. The show also stars Carmen Ejogo, Isiah Whitlock Jr., Michael Stahl-David, and Lilli Kay.

Your Honor explores themes of morality, justice, and the consequences of one's actions. The show is praised for its well-written script, and the performances of the lead actors, particularly Bryan Cranston, who received critical acclaim for his portrayal of Michael Desiato. The show is also praised for its accurate depiction of New Orleans and its culture, which adds an extra layer of realism to the story.

Overall, Your Honor is a thrilling and intense legal drama that keeps audiences on the edge of their seats as they watch Michael navigate the dangerous waters of crime and corruption in the city. The show is recommended for fans of legal dramas, crime thrillers, and fans of Bryan Cranston's work.

Brilliant acting by the kid who played Kofi. Cranston was Cranston, the mob wife kinda scared me but Adam ruined the show for me. I couldn't wait for him to go down.
