This show was one of the rare hour-long television dramas that I could really sink my teeth into, and it barely survived a full season. A few years later, and it's like no one even remembers it. I've heard critics scold it for being over-dramatic, but I have never been so riveted by a storyline and performances on network TV.
From Richard Roundtree and his wife confronting the young man who killed their son, to the young man who was dying from AIDS. Jesse Martin and his dealings with AIDS. The show was full of tragedy, and you definitely didn't watch it to cheer you up, but the issues were so relevant. I think it was an injustice to pull it from the air so quickly.
