    Through some bizarre turn, the metacritic rating for this show is the same as that for Orange is the New Black, proof that one can't take professional reviews as gospel. Burden of Truth is a likeable, well-intended story of a small town taking on corporate greed. It's well-trod territory and nothing new. It will not make you think, it will not startle or surprise you, but if you watchThrough some bizarre turn, the metacritic rating for this show is the same as that for Orange is the New Black, proof that one can't take professional reviews as gospel.

    The mystery serves as rope, pulling us through the reunions and confessions. Mooney is pretty stiff in the pilot; Nicola Correia-Damude could be the oracle as Hanley’s would-be friend. The most refreshing aspect of Truth is its open embrace of Canada.

    The series is as good as it needs to be, and maybe a little better. Like other Canadian dramas that have made their way south across the 49th parallel, it is attractively modest in ambition and execution, without feeling cheap or flimsy. Many of the elements in the story are familiar, which is not the least attraction of this summer entertainment, the narrative version of a beach read.

    Protective town officials, ostracism and an increasingly divided community serve as appendages in a multi-layered whodunit/coverup with enough pulling power to endure for the rest of this summer and early fall.
