    I think the show is very watchable. Jason O'Mara is amazing. Why has he not been in more things? I think the show draws the watcher in and has you rooting for the underdog.

    I think there is great potential here and hope the show gets the time and attention to realize that potential.

    There are so few quality Tv shows but this one ranks at the top. All of the actors are superb.

    I love this show and hope they bring it back. I think the episodes were always interesting and the cast members are great. For those of us who have to stay home on Friday nights to take care of a family, it was a good hour break and to me a can't miss show.

    My family and I really like In Justice. We like the characters (especially Conti) and the stories. Please tell me it is not being taken off the air. It is one reason we look forward to t.v. on Friday night.

    I love, love, love this show and my husband and I taped it every Friday night since we had another show we love to watch at the same time and would watch both every Friday night. I hope the show comes back...and soon! The fall lineup of shows does not look promissing!

    I really miss this show; I thought it was fantastic. Does anyone remember the episode where an incarcerated woman is set free and she leaves the prison to the song "Hit the Ground Running". I would like to know the real name/singer of that song; it was so moving! Thanks for the help!

    I'm a little surprised they kicked off the series with that storyline. You need to lay that big 'ol hook out there so people will keep watching. Something quirky or unusual about the lead character's life? A particularly compelling way that the group goes about investigating? This show didn't have it. But because Klye Mc is the star, I'll give it another week.

    Surprisingly good for "just" another court show. Interesting casting. Looks fresh! Look forward to it.

    In Justice is a show that will show how many mistakes the government make. TOO MUCH!!

    The worst attempt at crime/social import drama to date, and I was prepared to embrace the show with all the advanced hype. Oh well...

    This was my favorite show! What happened? Some of the garba'ge abc shows and they had to cancel this one? Grrr! Honestly... I think NBC should have picked this one up. They could really use it ; )

    Maclaughlan tries too hard to be the next Denny Crane (William Shatner; Boston Legal). The show is easy to folloe and tolerable if you are home channel surfing on Friday night.

    Excellent show!! It allways gives me something to ponder. I hope the show continues to shed light on the flaws in the criminal justice system.

    This show has a cast that is funny, smart, and most of all really sink their teeth into the case/person they are trying to get justice for. They have a way of making me feel it too.

    When I'm away I DVR this show, I have to see it and I just love it. It seems all the good shows which CRITICS seem to rate low are not viewers point of view which is what matters. I would also like to know who say the song with words "Hit The Ground Baby" which was sung as she was being released from prison. Not sure of the episode but it was when the appraiser was jailed and framed When I'm away I DVR this show, I have to see it and I just love it.

    The regular characters are generic, and the plots are filled with holes. But as a mindless TV distraction bent on reminding us that the justice system is not perfect, ''In Justice" will do.

    The writers and directors do a sometimes routine, sometimes solid job of making something as atypical as an imprisoned innocent seem believable in the world of fictional network television.

    Though reminiscent of other TV fare, though standard in dialogue, plotting and performances, "In Justice" does boast a touch of originality by examining not only investigators, victims and criminals, but innocent bystanders ensnared in the crime web as well.
