Really well done, all,acting was awesome, especially the lead and her nemesis, so good to see Suzie Porter, Catherine McClements and Essie Davis as compelling as always
Get a bit sick of the time jumps used in every single movie and TV series now but this one wasn't as bad as usual.
Beautifully shot, absolutely vibrant, terrific location shots and no scenes in the dark where you're guessing what's going on or boring blues and greys.
No need to try to read text messages on a phone on a screen across the room in 5 seconds which is also used a lot & really painful, they were handled so cleverly in this production
Sobering that most of this story is true and Gibson is clearly mentally very unwell but handled sympathetic ly with thoughtful balance and sensitivity and the acting even by minor players was outstanding.
Great work. More please.

What a disappointment
Kathy Bates the great access as a typecast underestimated wise old lady who fools a bunch of cardboard cutout lawyers & benign old Beau Bridges to hire her and of course there's a dramatic secret motive
Yawn
The premise of her hiring is totally unrealistic. The script shallow and done a million times before.
The background music is better suited to a twee hallmark Christmas movie.
The music alone is enough to tell you to turn off.
Again Americans produce done to death slapstick crap. Try watching Silk for decent legal drama or Rake for a legal series with humor and wit or new series Joan on Stan or Territory in Netflix for decent scripts and good acting.

Lead actress put in a fine effort, despite a crap script.
David Morrissey never could act and Katherine Kelly playing the new editor is a cliche. She should try soap operas.. Her overacting along with the obviously male writing team shocker of a script insults all working women.
Even in the early 80's the blokes weren't all uniformly horny, dimwitted and misogynist & senior women didn't pout and posture trying to look menacing & looking like a parody & young female reporters weren't ready to screw everything walking no matter how ambitious they were.
Shocking use of some great actors, the mother played by expended wonderful Branagh Gallagher a cardboard cutout, the supporting actors had far more gravitas and talent than Morrissey and Kelly.
No wonder Jonas Armstrong got out of it after two episodes.
Hope the lead actress got a better series and script after this mess.
