One crime can forever change a small town.
One crime can forever change a small town. From the producers of Breaking Bad comes a slow-paced but promising new drama series about a death-row inmate returning home 19 years after he was convicted of raping and killing his high school girlfriend. Newcomer Aden Young is affecting as a man haunted by his prison experience, uncertain how to start anew, and bowed by neighbors’ perception that he’s a killer who was freed on a technicality. With Abigail Spencer as the younger sister who fought for years for her brother’s release. Monday, April 22, at 9 p.m., Sundance
