Julian Kaye has always been an object of desire, so much so that people are willing to destroy him in order to have him. Exonerated, after 15 years in prison for a murder he didn’t commit, he now faces the challenge of picking up the pieces as the detective who put him behind bars tries to unravel the mystery that led to his wrongful incarceration.

This show is going a whole way differently than I thought and it is good. Give it a try.
First episode was not bad,left me wanting more.
I made it 'til ep. 4, barely, but I won't continue watching it. Bad directing, editing, writing... those flashbacks took half an episode and are pointless, boring and repetitive. Visually looks cheap (that ugly digital noise) and soapy. But the music's good.
[SkyShowtime] A remake that is not a remake and a sequel that is not a sequel. In reality, there are only general common elements to build a story that places the protagonist in the middle of a police investigation. In the end, Julian is a kind of Ray Donovan who wanders around Los Angeles trying to find himself, but as a story it ends up being a disappointing conventional thriller, much less seedy and dark than Paul Schrader's film. In the first few episodes some interesting insights are given about the life of a man driven down a dead end road, too young to rest and too old to continue working as a prostitute. And while Jon Bernthal is less seductive than Richard Gere, he is infinitely a better actor, so at least he brings a depth to Julian that the character didn't have before.
Total overkill with all the flashbacks in this show,ruined it for me.
