Pretty true to life events inside the NM prison system with the corrections officers and the inmates. The show follows rookie corrections officers in their first year of working inside the NM prison system. I enjoyed watching the show before I started working at the local NM prison which was one of the featured prisons, which gave me a better understanding of the inside which helped ease my mind which was edgy I accepted the position. Production was halted around the time I started working there which is sad, because this was one of my favorite shows.
