However original lead Timothy Hutton, who recently faced sexual assault allegations, is not returning.

  1. This was an enjoyable series. I will check it out, but I hope Amazon just slaps it on Prime in Australia. I don’t want whatever that IMDB TV thing is to watch it. I hate ads.

    1. IMDB TV is only available in the US, so Amazon Prime here would seem a logical choice.

      It was a rather silly, low, budget TNT drama. A bit of fun robin hood fantasy attacking corporate America. I watch the 2nd season on Fox8. A strange choice for a remake, but I guess when you are the 1500th scripted show that’s been made in the last few years, there aren’t any better ideas left.
