Undercover (I) (2016)
5/10
Say what?!

Warning: Spoilers
This was one of the silliest, campiest (is that a word?), most confusing mini-series that has ever been aired. The premise of an undercover policeman who spies on his prosecutor wife was hard enough to swallow, but it at least held enough interest to see how it would develop. But ... oh Please! The guy on death row in America didn't kill the American mayor; no - it was the British drug dealing activist?! Oh Please! (When did Maya get licensed to argue in an American appeals court, much less the Supreme Court?) My hope for this mini-series was never very high, but it really was a huge disappointment. And the activist was not killed while incarcerated - he actually had a heart attack? I thought the whole show was about discovering who was involved in the cover-up of the activist's death while in police custody. If not that, then what exactly was being covered up? Why, then, was the drug addicted ex-undercover police officer (Abigail) murdered by an injected drug overdose? What story was the journalists chasing? I AM SO CONFUSED!!!!
