This is one of the best shows that I have watched that truly depicts the drug epidemic in the 80s. This tv show has me locked in to the fullest degree although it is only on the third season. From start to finish it is extremely detailed in the storytelling, the actors are good, and to finish it off the production is so good, I would think this was filmed in the 80s. Definitely would recommend this to anyone that wants to watch some good tv.

Awesome show season 4 will be crazy. I only hate the fact the creator cheated the real Rick Ross out the show then came back when they ran out of ideas asking him to help... The real Rick Ross will come out with his own show cant wait for that!!!

Addicted. I like all three storylines, they're very good. It could use some more action (for my liking), but the story lines are great. The action could still be coming soon, since it is still a brand new show. My girlfriend and I love this show.
