No spoilers, haven't looked at IMDB, and I'm only 3 episodes in. This is a who done it procedural available now on a giant retail/streaming service. It's described as 'slow burn' but is more like a glowing ember with an occasional spark. What is so captivating though is its unintended strangeness. It is set in Boston with the local police and the FBI as the protagonists, but in every scene so far there is something just a little off. The actors do a workmanlike job, but except for the one or two native english speakers, I find myself smiling at the accent slips. Likewise, the sets, costumes, architecture, decor, etc. all seem to be trying too hard to look American. This is a good one for Movie Mistakes fans because it really lends itself to scrutiny.
