The Frontline: Season 1 – Episode 1 by Michael Santino

Michael Santino kicks his series off with an explosive start in The Frontline: Season 1 – Episode 1. Seemingly ripped from today’s tumultuous headlines, this small-town tale of crime and power runs head-on at issues like domestic terrorism, anarchists, white supremacy, law enforcement, and the judicial system. Some of the dialogue feels too explicit to be believed, particularly between law enforcement agents, but the narration is sharp, clever, and unpredictable. Along with the heavy and timely themes, this first installment is also focused on gritty character-building, setting the stage for an action-packed, twist-driven series.
