Accused (FOX) -- Based on BBC series -- From the producers of 24, Homeland & House -- Premieres 1/22/23
From Emmy Award-winning producer Howard Gordon, the co-creator of landmark television, such as Homeland, and the showrunner of 24, comes Accused - a collection of 15 intense, topical and exquisitely human stories of crime and punishment. Each episode is a fast-paced provocative thriller, exploring a different crime, in a different city, with an entirely original cast. Based on the BBC's BAFTA-winning crime anthology, Accused opens in a courtroom on the defendant, with viewers knowing nothing about their crime or how they ended up on trial. Told from the defendant's point of view through flashbacks, the show holds a mirror up to current times with evocative and emotional stories. In the end, audiences will discover how an ordinary person gets caught up in extraordinary circumstances, and how one impulsive decision can impact the course of that life - and the lives of others -- forever. Developed by Howard Gordon (Homeland, 24) and executive-produced by Gordon, Alex Gansa (Homeland, 24) and David Shore (House, The Good Doctor), Accused once again fearlessly takes on the hottest topics of our time.

I saw the first 35 minutes of this premiere before I got a phone call from my son.
Curious to how it ended, I found and read this article over at Deadline that has an interview tacked on at the end with the creator. Pretty interesting article. https://deadline.com/2023/01/accused...235229632/amp/ I saw the plot going one way and wasn't surprised reading how it ended. Shocking, but different. Tough, but timely. I guess the next new ep is on Tuesday. |

I can kind of guess by context, but how did the hostage scene resolve. Spoiler it if you need to.

So if you can help me out, what was the verdict? (That’s what the article doesn’t say.) |
Re: Accused (FOX) -- Based on BBC series -- From the producers of 24, Homeland & House -- Premieres 1/22/
I was initially planning to DVR this post football game. But, I don't want to deal with padding anymore and this gets dropped on Hulu Monday morning, so I'll just watch it then.

I just watched this on Hulu. Excellent one episode drama. Makes you think.
If you're like me and losing patience for how movies and even streaming shows drag their stories out, then you should check this out. Jill Hennessy looks good. |

Wow that was excellent. Really gut wrenching and it really made you think about the dilemma Chiklis’ character was going through. I did not expect that answer at the end. A really well done one and done episode.

Tonight's episode (S01E02, "Ava's Story") was great too.
Marlee Matlin's directing was fantastic. Great acting by a stellar cast of Megan Boone (from The Black List), Aaron Ashmore (not Shawn), Stephanie Nogueros, Lauren Ridloff (from TWD), and Josh Castille (never seen hm before)... so far Accused is 2 for 2 with me. |

I only caught the very end of the Tuesday episode so I really can't comment on it. As for Sunday,

Really enjoyed both of the aired episodes. Rare quality written show on FOX.
Seeing Wesley from The Rookie in the 2nd episode threw me off a bit but not enough to distract from the story. |

Oh, shit. I had no idea they were twins or that Shawn had a brother. Never had a reason to look him/them up.

This kind of reminded me of In Justice, a show that was on ABC that had Kyle MacLachlan in it.
I really liked the first one, I thought the ending of the second one was a bit eyerolling, but otherwise good. |

Both of them appeared in just as many recognizable shows, so they are pretty on par, so it really makes confusing. Was this the one from X-men and The Following? Or Killjoys and Smallville?
Aaron - who was in this show - is from Killjoys and Smallville. I knew that it wasn't Shawn because his arms aren't that big. Seems Aaron likes to workout a bit more than his twin. |

I thought the latest episode, with Rachel Bilson, was the first dud of the series.

I haven't seen the latest episode from this week yet, but I agree about the 2nd. It was pretty solid up until the ending. I was like C'Mon now that would never happen! But all the actors were good including the deaf woman, the guy who played her partner and Megan Boone.
