Opinions Needed. (Potential SPoilers)


I saw the first two episodes of this show at one sitting.

I was VERY discouraged at a very poor scripted show.
The third episode was A LOT more interesting and that is what kept me to the show. Once I saw Ellis reading the document talking about the "Macedonia-Greece Trade Emargo" of 1995 - I was very excited for the show.

A bunch of the script seems played over many times. A lot of the material is not all original.

However, as a Macedonian and a proud one - I am writing a Major Motion Picture on Macedonia's criminal underworld, this excited me.

HOWEVER, in episode 10, When they got into the little girl and what happened in OHRID, MACEDONIA - A beautiful city and lake - However, Patrick Swayse says it "O-rid" and "ORAD" - then in the dream of the car bomb in Macedonia, the note he read on the symbol off the chair (which matched the zipper emblem) wasn't even Macedonian - It was Russian.

I'm going to watch the rest of the season, because I do beleive there is a little more Macedonian storyline.

Your opinions, IN DEPTH on the show.

Not in depth, but I love this show. I think Patrick is terrific. It's dark and gritty and I enjoy getting into the characters and stories.
