    A very underrated show!

    The devil lies in the details, and the little things matter, making this show incredibly realistic.(Psychological realism)

    Eamonn Walker is a revelation, making one wonder, where has he been all along.Not to mention the intriguing writing.

    Along with being captivating and entertaining the dialogues serve as a life coaching mantra.

    This show is an inspiration to take hold of life by changing the little things, habits and routines and make the big difference.

    This is more than boxing, its human drama at its best!

    Give it a try you won't regret, seriously fun.

    Great New Show

    I love this new show and I love Holt McCallany as an actor. He should have been cast in a lead way before this. I hope FX does not cancel this show. I will be watching this show every week. I can't wait to see more episodes. I like his wife Theresa too. I don't understand why major TV channels don't pick this show up. This is one of the best new shows on TV. I can't wait to see some fight scenes. This show is great. It's about time TV gets some exciting TV shows. I remember seeing Holt McCallany in a couple of Law and Order episodes and I thought he was a great actor then. I really hope FX renews this show next year because it stands out over the other new TV shows this year. I hope voting for it on this website helps keep it on TV. I am going to email FX too and tell them I really like this show.

    A rare gem

    Finally available to stream after all these years!! I have to admit that I'm not big into sports... but I love true tellings of the backstories of professional athletes as well as fictional sports movies which showcase such tales. "Lights Out" is fiction, of course, but it's like a true family drama first and foremost with boxing in the background and it's fantastic so it's no wonder I love it! Even the music is insanely inspired! Holt McCallany and the rest of the cast turn in incredible performances...however, I don't mean to be mean, but...the exception is Catherine McCormack who is sorely cast. She's physically right for the part, but she over- or under-acts in every single scene.

    I love this show.

    I was so excited to watch after seeing the previews on TV...and I am glad I did. I thought the show was/is great and the characters are as well. This has to be the best that Holt has ever done. It gives him so much range and emotion. I love this character because of him. They have finally written a part for him that allows him to shine....and he absolutely does in this. I am watching every episode and can't wait until the next one comes. I think FX has done an amazing job with this one. I hope they listen to me and I am not alone out there. For once a show feels real. The characters make you want to watch. I want to see this run for years!!!

    This is a sensational show!

    I was told about this show by my cousin. It sounded good but my oh my I didn't expect it to be this good. You most likely already know the premise of the show so I won't spend time on that for now. But the writing is superb. Holt McCallany as the main character Patrick "Lights" Leary is a fine performance.

    The beauty of this show is that it doesn't just focus on the boxing but on the boxer's personal life and the ins and outs of the murky world of professional boxing.

    The makers of this show must have researched well since it feels like the real deal.

    The scripting is excellent and unpredictable yet always believable.

    My only one gripe with the show is that the boxers don't really look big enough to be heavyweights, they look more like middleweights.

    I only sat down to watch one or two episodes but finished the entire season off in two nights after work, compelling stuff.

    Looking forward to season two.
