One Dollar

Despite it's low review, I went with my better judgement and decided to watch One Dollar as the storyline intrigued me. I'm so glad I did as It's one of the better shows I've watched this year. From the start the viewer knows a crime has occured but wonderful writing allows multi character storylines to develop in a way that the crime itself becomes the backdrop and it's the personal stories of individuals that are the focus of the show. This can only be accomplished by great acting and original storytelling. Thoroughly deserves a better score than it currently has.

Low key, but gripping. Good human interest stories around a murder mystery. Nice to have fresh faces, and down to earth characters instead of the usual Hollywood starlet/beautiful botoxed/face-lifted people. Loved it.

Don't get fooled by the score. Fans of Fargo should watch it definitely! It not as good as Fargo but very close to it. A lot of mystery, very well interpreted characters.

Pretty good murder mystery with the Pittsburgh accent in all its glory. Don't pay attention to the artificially low rating.

Sometimes IMDB really makes me question the sanity of some of it's reviewers. Anybody who visited this site and searched this show would see a very low score and probably not bother with it, the kicker is that this is a very, very good show! Pretty original drama, a few twists and turns, pretty decent casting and decent paced story line to go along with it. My review is based on the first 2 episodes, I would recommend giving this show a chance, it deserves one, it's a real hidden gem.
