You're pre-positioning yourself to expect the worst. That's a helluva way to go about it.

I thought it was pretty good . . . . but I've been a big fan of the real Prime Suspect with Helen Mirren and its not in the same class.

They're in danger of making the protaganist a little too tough though and had to throw in that crying/begging for affection scene to take the edge off and give her some vulnerability.

It looks like they'll have a single crime solved every week versus the Mirren Prime Suspect scenario of developing a scenario over multiple episodes.

I'll keep watching.

My DVR is full of new shows and I've got to weed through them all in the next few days.
