Title: Your Honor
Review: Who does stressed- out- to -the – max/intense -beyond – belief like Cranston? Hard to watch his pain and conflict for ten hours of this miniseries, as an honorable New Orleans Judge in over his head with the mob to protect his son. The supporting performances are excellent, especially Whitlock (The Senator from The Wire) and Doohan. Stahlberg’s mob boss is also noteworthy. The show delves deep into the graft and corruption synonymous with New Orleans politics and law enforcement, and shows us all of the city really well along the way. I was enthralled with the show until the last episode, which took a pretty unfeasible leap for me, before rebounding with shocking ending. Filled with neurotic symbolism and enmeshments, Crazy Cranston deserves an award just by showing up on screen- he is a classic piece of work, he is. You got to like complex, and wrought with tension for this one. Unbelievably there are rumors of a second season , similar to the original Israeli show this was based on
