Wow! This show is so amazingly good! I wish more people new about it. If it was on a well-known cable channel tons of people would be talking about it. I really like the grittiness of it and how they show the juxtaposition of cultures/rich/poor all within Miami.
The casting is great. Martin Freeman is like nothing I've ever seen him in before. In fact, he creeped me out a lot and normally Martin plays the kind of guy that is so likable. Just the small looks he gives, like when a one night stand told him she didn't want the breakfast he made special for her. I was waiting for him to lash out at her. He didn't have to say a word, but you could see the heat in his eyes calling her many vulgar names.
Edi Gathegi. What an actor! He gave such a commanding performance and I couldn't take my eyes off of him whenever he was on the screen.
The story kept me wanting more. I watched 9/10 episodes in one day and it has been a long time since I've found a TV show that I've wanted to binge. I don't want to have to wait for season 2. Oh man, I hope there will be a season 2! I also loved that I could watch the series on my TV through Xfinity On Demand. I will be spreading the word about the show. So many people would love it.

One of the most up to date and relevant dramas I've binge watched in recent times, it starts off in explosive, dramatic, hard hitting style, and continues through the series. It's super relevant with all the recent news surrounding Bitcoin, and it certainly does make you wonder how a 'different' currency can actually work, the concept is outrageous to many of us, this drama helps to bring the concept to life. Miami serves as an intriguing backdrop, it conjures up beautiful beaches and sun, but of course the reality is a different matter. Great acting all round, Edi Gathegi, Martin Freeman, Adam Brody and Otmara Marrero all shine in particular. It's hard hitting, sometimes violent, but the violence is delivered with a sense of reality, it isn't needless or done to be sensationalist, just shown in a real way. As a drama it absorbs you, and makes you want to watch just one more episode.
I just finished the final episode of this series and must say it was both refreshing and entertaining at the same time. It shows how not to quit when you set out to do something you strongly believe in even though obstacles gets thrown in the way. Edi, Otmara, Adam and Martin Freeman all played their roles extremely well, so for people interested in something fresh then give this series a try. It has a bit of everything and keeps you wanting more and also makes you want to root for the underdogs and they certainly kept trying as the story builds. Even Wayne Knight managed to be in it and got a few chuckles out. Kudos to Crackle for bringing us this wonderful new series and hope to see a second season in the near future.
This is a cracker of a series. So full of twists and turns. Great characters, script, direction and cinematography.
I can't believe that it ended. OMG.
This was one of the more bingeworthy series I have seen. Relentless drama. I loved the characters and their interrelationships. Powerful stuff.
The American dream spread wide open in all its tawdry glory. Fun times!
Watch it, enjoy but be prepared to be left yearning for more.
