Ahh, finally...
A production that is not formulaic and one dimensional like every one-story-per-episode cop, medical and law drama that has thrived on fear and gullibility and polluted the air waves and rotted the minds of millions of thoughtless automatons all over the world for the last decade.
The script is snappy, The characters are interesting and multi dimensional, the production is slick and the backdrop is an unusual and thought provoking set.
From the first scene, you can feel the pulse of Treme. As the characters are slowly revealed and interact, there is an air of anticipation and a real feeling of movement towards an unknown direction.
This is a refreshing, polished human life drama. A dynamic, original breath of fresh air. A window to a very real culture and a very real class of people.
