Time is gut-wrenching at every opportunity, though restrains itself from ever doing anything for shock value. In what feels like a truly genuine look at prison-life, there's the perfect balance between hope and despair, displaying amazingly written characters with depth and a realness as opposed to over-the-top dramatisation. I'd prefer if the writers hadn't piloted the show with formulaic storytelling, though admittedly, it never for a moment undermines just how powerful the story is from start to finish.
