Shadowplay (2020)
Complex dramaset is a time when right and wrong were not simple

I read CarsonTrent's review. I suspect s/he and I didn't see the same program. There is NOTHING black and white about this series. It shows a society divided and under immense stress. It shows characters trying to make sense of the times, while trying to create order. It shows competing political regimes, each of whom thinks they are right. All this with a plot of a brothers love, interwoven by that brother driven to unspeakable horrors because of what he has experienced.
So not the simple pap that reviewers like CarsonTrent want. This is complex drama, not perfect, but certainly worthy of more than trite ignorant niaeve spewing of the worst of the Middle American mind, such as it is.
