Solid fukin series. Great acting all around. Closing arguments killed it. Molto was just grasping for straws with nothing solid to work with and he reeked of jealousy towards Rusty. Smart jury. Never saw the movie, and don't care if they changed things...that's kinda the point. Why remake with something with exactly the same outcome.
Wife nailed her performance in the garage with Rusty and daughter.
By the 6th episode I had guessed the killer, but I didn't expect the other part of who tied her up. Crazy the whole time Rusty how she was murdered and was secretly trying to divert all attention away from who he thought was the murderer. That's why he sat on a lot of evidence / information the first 48 hrs.
I suspected lots of people from Molto to the ex-husband/kid, but I figured it had to be someone we hadn't seen much spotlight on.
I think the ending was to show they aren't really happy, but trying to act like it....those dark secrets will tear any family up eventually. That daughter is going to need help eventually....how did she sit in the courtroom the whole time knowing her dad could take the fall for her.
Season 2 is a go and it will be a different case. I imagine it will be an entire new cast / plot.
