I liked this a lot — the murders were grisly and there’s a hard boiled detective and an idealist lawyer. The Vegas setting could have gotten a bit more love, but at least it was something new and different for a procedural. The only thing I didn’t like was the often weirdly inane summaries of court room drama, which should have been way smarter.
