Really want to watch this but been reading about it being cancelled has made me think twice. Don't want to invest in a show that won't even get past season one.

Don't know that it's quite as close to disaster as that - it's maintaing a 7.3 IMDb rating which is pretty good - but it's struggled for audience. Not helped by being put in the Castle spot after DWTS or turning Hayley Atwell, one of the most well known Brits in Hollywood, into a not entirely convincing American.
The ratings are terrible and critics have pretty much slaughtered it. I would call it a disaster. |

My advice is don't get too involved in this show.
Could still be cancelled before it airs in the Uk. |

So so
Having seen the first episode it is worth a watch however the trailer on Sky Living gives away the ending so a big thumbs down to Sky

Wasn't there a Law And Order spinoff also titled "Conviction"? IIRC.

I think you're safe diving in, even with its unknown survival status. Each ep is pretty much self contained so you can enjoy it whilst it lasts.
![]() I must admit, this is one of my favourite new shows this year and I would be sorry to see it cancelled. |

Wasn't too sure how I felt about it after the pilot but the next 3 eps have been really good.

I was very pleased to see a fat character (albeit in a minor role - although that could change) as fat people are over-looked in TV land - the main character's brother, speaking of the main character (what kind of a stupid name is Hayes?), she has to be one of the most unlikable TV characters I've ever came across. I don't understand how the wrongly-convicted man's mother managed to just walk off the street & end up in the team's office. So what was in the file on the blonde woman?
It would have been nice if we the viewers had been let in on that. The actress that played the murder victim's mother was way too young for that role.

I thought I'd have a look but couldn't get past the rapid speech. I usually manage with the American accents but this was a step too far. Shame as I thought it might be good.

Another run of the mill US law firm drama. Can't they come up with anything other than law and medical dramas these days.

NEXT..................... Seriously it would seem that way. After Blindspot I think the amnesia cop/fed is the next big thing, we've two variations in the pipeline for next year all ready. |

Anything with Hayley Atwell is worth a watch.
