Parents need to know that this soapy drama follows the mystery behind a murder. In at least one episode, viewers see a dead person in a flashback scene as well as another person getting shot. A thief threatens the main character's family with a gun while stealing drugs. The town detective is perpetually drunk. One main character shoplifts, lies, and plots to use sex for material gain. People who initially seem good may turn out to be bad (and vice versa).

Families can talk about the challenge of making tough moral decisions. In this show, characters lie and commit crimes in order to help a family member. How do parents and teens weigh the pros and cons of a questionable decision? What would you do to save a loved one's life? What wouldn't you do? Do the ends ever justify the means? How many times can you forgive the people you love?
