John Goodman was great - as he consistently is, plot was good and am sure that a lot of viewers learnt more about the Rwandan tragedy than the average person knows. Could have had a stronger cast...........the female lead was almost irritating to watch - while she could have been thanking her good fortunes, she comes off as arrogant, rude and entitled - she generally looks off the whole series. And there is a lot of puking..............yet, all in all a decent series.
