This is by far the best production I have ever seen. Hands down.
Unbiased, professional, and extremely appealing from a production standpoint (speaking of which, where do they find these people?). It does not immediately investigate the "water crisis" like one would likely expect. Instead, it communicates the real problem at hand, the hostility between a community and its cities officials.
This series does not stop there. It constantly holds your attention, refusing to be anything like similar series' where the same content is repeated episode after episode. The second a certain topic in "Flint Town" begins to sour a completely new position is introduced and examined - exactly how the media should be. This isn't about taking sides. This is about hearing every single voice in the community and determining what the best solution is to improve the level of comfort and safety felt in the community.
In satisfying this mission they complete another objective without any intention, leading viewers to the realization that maybe the government isn't 'really' out to get them - maybe it's really their fellow citizens.
Overall I must give this series a solid 10/10. Phenomenal from nearly all perspectives.
