Long Slow Exhale

Initial premise OK. Rose Rollins as the star good choice, one of those Hollywood B-listers who looks like she can do more. All downhill from there. Probably the budget was the big constraint, but the secondary casting choices are weak, the scripting is weak, and the flashbacks/flashforwards must have looked great on paper but do not work well on the screen.

The end is very bad,and no season 2..sucks,nobody cares abt the audience and all ppl that wait for next season or wanna to see a decent finale...shame on you ppl,why the heck u make serials if u cannot have a decent end or other season?is this normal?

Excellent series. Even though we know who was dead early on, the way it all unfolds holds your interest. I liked the back and forth of the time frames, before and after the killing. How it all happened and what caused it is the story. It's the well used story of greed, corruption and ruined reputations with the backdrop of women's basketball. It could have been told in less than 12 episodes, because I think they belabored the point. But, American series have yet to learn from the foreign series how to be succinct. I would imagine the BBC could have done this in 6-9.

I liked the fact this was set with the story of a women's college basketball team, but the scenes of them actually playing were really bad. That usually is the case in sports movies, but these scenes were particularly bad. Just a bunch of shots of shoes, hands and every now and then a basketball either missing the rim or falling through. It's a shame because it could have been so much better.

The young cast were all very good.

Gave it an 8 for badly staged game scenes.

My husband and I watched this and loved it! Didn't expect that ending at all even though we new who died early on. More people need to be able to see this! The lead actress, Rose Rolands, was sooo good! She played such a strong yet vulnerable character. I truly hope there is a second season!

Absolute trash, writing is laughably bad, acting reflects, the lead is an insipid bore with absolutely no acting talent, I look forward to dancing on the grave of its cancellation.
