The show is about a gritty cop in a gritty town working on a gritty case. It could have been called "Tru Grit" if that wasn't already taken. Kate Winslet does a good job acting like a man, in fact, literally ......she's a guy. Her stoic decidedly un bubbly demeanor is totally old school hard nosed cop, except in prior generations they would have cast a man in the role. She is also more competent than most of the guys on the force, who include one that turns into a nervous nelly at the site of blood. Hollywood loves to shatter stereotypes, but you have to wonder if a childhood of seeing this stuff is a reason for so much gender dysphoria in today's unhappy and fluid world.?
