The crime thriller is the opening-act season for what’s been billed as an anthology series, and it follows a woman (Jessica Biel) who carries out an act of violence with no discernable motivation, as well as the investigator (played by Bill Pullman) who becomes dead set on figuring out why she did it.
These are shows where, in general, the central focus of an entire season is on a single crime. Whodunnit, and what was done? Why? How? The unpacking of the character's faults and fealty are at the center of these dramas.
