Alasca: Em Busca da Notícia

Down to earth TV show, looks very real not like some over the top things we see in some cliche RV Shows or movies that don't make sense.

Digging out the truth can be very hard especially when the police is part of the problem and abusing their power. Being a reporter is being a detective, you investigate and connects the dots... Deciding to report some stories or not for a reporter knowing how it will affect the people involved is a tough choice.

Nice to see Hilary Swank in action. She's a good actor and she looks real. I like also tha they talk about real issue about what happens to indigenous women in their community.

The supporting cast is good too with a mix of young and veteran actors.

Let me just say, this series is very much needed. The realization that indigenous women are indeed murdered more than 10 times than the average is appalling. That doesn't even include all of the indigenous women in Canada, either. The depiction of this in the series is spot on. It's a very well acted cast. It's good to see so many indigenous actors to highlight this issue. I would like to see a series focused on actual cases, as well. Get on that, Investigation Discovery. Hilary Swank is brilliant, as per always. In a time that everyone seems to want to demonize the media, this series shows that sometimes they do get it wrong, sometimes they're heroes but they work really hard to get it right. Most of them, anyways.

Just watched the pilot and will definitely watch more. The series places a disgraced investigative journalist at a small local newspaper in Alaska. At first I thought it was going to be a bit trite, but when I saw that Hilary Swank heads the cast, I thought I'd check it out. She doesn't disappoint. And the basis of the Missing and Murdered Indiginous Women shines a light on a current topic that has largely been overlooked. I know people will criticize the abrasiveness of Hilary's character, but I kind of like it. So glad the boss is not the stereoptypical man, or the too-nice woman. Also, there a lot of characters that can be developed. There is some room to grow, but Looking forward to the next episodes. Hope the writing doesn't take a wrong turn and stays original.

What i like about this it is inclusive, from the characters to the stories and its not shy about it either. I really enjoy the Eileen and Aaron chemistry and also love the whole team/actors/ress at the newsroom they are all supportive and caring of one another other and I think we are in need of that. The scenery is also really stunning. I believe this show deserves multiple seasons and can even get darker with its storylines. There is some absolute rubbish on Disney that has had a number of seasons for some reason but this actually deserves the chance at season 2 and onwards. Its honestly a must watch for anyone who wants a bit of humour, kindness, suburban, nice scenery, drive, passion unity and mysteries.

It is so refreshing to watch a series about news reporting that is low-key, serious and respectful of the profession. Given the constraints of time and storytelling, there may be some scenarios that seem overly simplistic (such as sources giving up sensitive documents or even returning phone calls) but overall it's really well done. The choice of subject matter - the disappearance of indigenous Alaskan women - gave the series tension and gravitas without lurid sensationalism. I was sorry to see it end and was left hoping for more. Some great characters and a really fine cast. Hilary Swank is superb!
