As someone who is.........


An adult male in his 30s now, but violently beaten & abused with a psycho-sexual component by a protected perpetrator at 11 yrs old, they wrote & conveyed the adult versions very sensitively, cognizant, and well imo. The child is one person until the traumatic event and they become a completely different individual after and these writers/actors were very aware of this and portrayed it very well to me. It was tough to watch some scenes for me, but others I know who liked the show got a better understanding of me, my life now, & my childhood then and to all that I thank the writers & actors.

To bad it got canceled but I don't believe studio-heads & producers understand the barometer of ratings should go down as the volume of television viewers has gone way down. typical procedurals in the states has the "child-in-peril" and "stupid character/character does stupid" plot devices re-hashed over & over nowadays, weekly in some instances & this show really didn't do any of that for the majority.
