Both women boast booming law careers that garner them respectability and power but unexpectedly find themselves immersed in the vacuum of the past that threatens to derail everything they\u2019ve achieved.<\/p>\n<p>Pinkett Smith will play a woman who makes history as she is appointed the first back district attorney of Wilmington, Delaware. But soon after, her world is rocked by conflicts of interests stemming from past alliances as she is rattled by the truth behind her husband\u2019s murder and is also saddled with a case that is swimming in controversy due to its racial undertones. This particular case will end up terrorizing her and the entire city.<\/p>\n<p>Sounds like another nail-biting offering that will potentially hold viewers hostage and keep social media spellbound for the allotted duration.<\/p>\n<p>It also proves that the epidemic Shonda Rhimes started is spreading rapidly and that is very good news indeed.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- google_ad_section_end -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The landscape of TV is becoming crowded with shows featuring women of color with high-powered agendas and adequate levels of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1,38,6],"tags":[194,2424,2489,835,2490,192,424],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.3 -
