It wants to be about the decline of small town America, a commentary on LGBTQ violence/acceptence, crime drama, legal drama, Norma Rae...just too much stuff in it. This could have been a decent 90 minute movie, but dragging it out to 9 episodes (seriously 9? not 8? not 10? pick a **** standard please. A solid 10 should be the standard now). Not frustrations:
