The show is a well done court-room drama, fairly light in terms of the violence (which I appreciate!). Casting and writing are intelligent and yes, this show very much pushes social issues. I think that's a good thing!
I find it fascinating that some of the comments here, about this show, are critical of the social mission. Why would a person object to entertainment that challenges the status quo, and which illuminates the experience of people who are usually marginalized? This is part of how people learn, by challenging the familiar. Kudos to the producers, writers, cast and crew, for bringing us something that inspires viewers to think. Even those who are uncomfortable with the content must admit, it made them think.
