Umm, talent means nothing anymore! Writers, producers, and actors at one time were skilled and had talent. There is no reason this 28 minute show should have a two plus minute intro. Social media has ruined television, not everyone is talented no matter what your parents told you. This is trash.

Better than I expected
th-9107118 February 2021
This movie was better than I expected. The actors were cute, that's why I gave it 4 stars. It was basically the same type of movie you would expect with drug dealers and living in poor communities. But with a small edge to it.
Bad acting, but so entertaining

This is not a show I would normally watch at all as I tend to prefer a full cast of actors who can actually act and deliver realistic dialogue, but Eric Cross was too much fun to watch. His character reminded me of a character in another series that I enjoyed very much--Dexter. I also thought the role played by the lead male doctor was not bad. I actually only gave it a chance because it's a Black production AND Darren Dewitt Henson is in it. I like some of his other projects.
There was some absolutely asinine subplots going on. The detective and his wife made no sense. No kind of chemistry whatsoever. The human trafficking ring with the old woman locked in the cell. (What the heck was wrong with her skin??? Was that real or fake?) Casting Erica as a doctor was completely unrealistic. She didn't pull that off at all. The sister who was snatched as a kid and all the random females with her were the worst actresses of all. Their scenes were cringe-worthy!!! The hospital administrator was so unrealistic with her silly facial expressions that it was hilarious. I cracked up every time she appeared on screen. The detective's wife could not act her way out of a paper bag. Her scenes were sad, and I actually felt lowkey embarrassed for her, the kidnapped sister, the hospital admin, and the other chick who wanted to be a boss after the "mother" was killed. Did these people even take acting lessons or were they found on a bus stop or in the mall or something? I hope they learned from this show and their acting improves if they plan to try to continue this career path. Lord.
DESPITE all of the bad acting, those were not the lead actors so they didn't completely destroy the show. However, I found myself addicted! Even with the bad acting, I still had to know what happened next, and Eric Cross stole the show every scene he was in, apparently without trying because he also has some more work to do in polishing his acting skills.
I watched the first season on Amazon Prime and got a free trial of ALLBLK just to see the second season, but there were only two episodes posted. So I went on and paid for a month just to watch the rest of the episodes. I am really hopeful that the acting and direction gets better because it has some potential to have successfully piqued my interest enough to watch every episode. Had this show had a bigger budget and a better director (and some writers who were actually logical thinkers), I think it could have been really good! BUT that's not to say it's terrible because I don't think it is at all. It was really entertaining if you can look past the bad acting and crazy subplots. Does that even make sense? lmao
But give it a chance. Don't believe us reviewers. Watch ONE episode and see what you think for yourself. Look at it solely for entertainment value and put aside any hopes of logic, realism, or great acting and you will not be disappointed if you don't set your expectations any higher than that.
And if they come out with another season, I will sure watch that too. I really hope to see these actors grow and improve in this and future roles.

Stereotypical drivel

Warning: Spoilers
I gave this a really good shot - I almost made it through three episodes - but I couldn't handle the lead character's weak behaviour any longer. She's supposed to be a strong, intelligent, capable medical professional, but she allows herself to be insulted by everyone around her, including subordinates. She lets men manhandle her and push her around, without defending herself. When she does defend herself, it's to murder them. Talk about going from one extreme to another(!) Her twin brother is a tattooed drug dealer and gang member. The cop who's after her is an alcoholic lesbian whose partner covers for her. It's just one tired cliché after another. The dialogue is incredibly trite too. I really wanted to like this, but it was excruciating to watch. Do better.
Worst series I've watched in a long time
mwachilucky11 September 2020
Honestly, the only reason I got to episode 3 was because Eric is super hot. I forwarded all Detective Candance scenes, she is just too much, its annoying. I didnt understand anything in the script, everything about this series is just wrong/misplaced, 90% of the cast is annoying. I just cant. How is there even a season 2?
Blah Acting, But Addictive
goldengoddess-092071 July 2020
The acting is B movie grade, but once you start the show, you have to finish. I paid for a month of this streaming service because there were two episodes I had to finish.
Low budget, but very entertaining. The brother was probably was beat part of the show. I hope there is a Season 2. I will be back!

Great Show
brownyrenee9 July 2020
The first scene driving made me wonder if it would be good but once I got passed that the show turned out great. The plot was good. The back story of the characters were great; not over kill but enough to make me wonder. The twins were gangsta. I sat and binge watched all episodes. Episode 6.ended just right. Left me wondering. Looking forward to watching more.
Good set of new comers
lswalke-7035622 July 2020
It was an okay season for new faces on the screen. I'm looking forward to season two just need a little more practice for the whole cast honestly. But I won't take away that it was a good show an story line, it was just too predictable. But I can tell with more practice they show will grow on us 🤗👏🏽✊🏾. Congratulations guys again I'm looking forward to season two
Absolutely atrocious acting.
eighthlettermedia20 June 2020
I'm gonna assume the first episode was shot, the entire cast realized none of them could deliver a line without sounding like they were reading the script, stopped production and all took top of the line acting lessons, formed back up and finished the remaining 5 episodes with stellar acting chops. Unfortunately, I'll never know, because I couldn't get past the first episode.
Seems Like It Should Have Been a Book
lasonia_cannon26 June 2020
I absolutely love it. I can't wait for a new episode each week. I think it's good for the platform it's shown on. I'm used to these types of shows so I understand them more than most. The acting ain't ah that bad either. The intro song is way too long! Lol!
Uncommon Opinion Lol
ericab-1119825 June 2020
Ok. The show needs work but, I like it. Some of the characters I good have done without. Like the fiancée and his lover. The graphics need work. I wanted to slap Ms. Audrey once I saw her. The show will grow on you just give a chance. Oh yeah and the female detective needs to go to acting class. She is doing to much. Again Eric is fine! Some of the scenes are a put much like the shower scene between Erica and the Dr. (yuck)
Again I like it. Let's give some newcomers a chance. One more thing the female officer is doing to much also.
Didn't make through the first episode
mdchambers15 January 2022
Where do I start? The $1.98 production budget? The clunky script? The awful acting?
This doesn't even have the "it's so bad it's good" factor going for it.
Turned it off halfway through the first episode. Watching a boiling pot would probably be more entertaining.

So much wrong with this show...
quieria4 July 2020
Where do I begin?? The intro is too long! This is not Power! The storyline was unrealistic. The acting....oh lord! The acting was atrocious! Erica is traipsing around the hospital in stilettos and minidresses. On episode 5 the twins are dressed like superhero's with Batman masks on. The only reason I made it through all 6 episodes is because Eric is FINE!
Best show ever !!!
