Vindication - Season 1

 

  Have you seen Season 1 of VINDICATION? This is an episodic faith-based crime drama series that matches the quality of any crime drama I have watched... but with a twist seldom seen on television. When I initially saw Episode 1 with guest star Ben Davies, I was frankly surprised by the ending and my curiosity was piqued about the future episodes.

Vindication covers the life of Detective Gary Travis (Todd Terry) at work and at home. His wife Becky (Peggy Shott) and daughter Katie (Emma Elle Roberts) are frequently directly or indirectly connected to each episode. The East Bank Police Department is where Travis works with his boss Sgt. Tomlinson (Steve Mokate), computer expert Kevin (Matt Holmes) and Gary's new detecive trainee Kris Tanner (Venus Monique). The interactions evolve over the series and the viewer becomes emotionally invested in these characters.




Director/Writer Jarod O'Flaherty has brilliantly created a story arch that is building the foundation of the series. Each episode is wonderful on its own, but the character development is what draws the viewer deeper into the series.(Other writers are Alan Tregoning and Micheal Willbanks.) Fans of faith-based films are sure to recognize many of the guest stars and background actors in the series, too.

Topics of episodes include drugs, adultery, human trafficking, sexting, kidnapping, PTSD, domestic violence, relationships, and more. These are stories that could be ripped out of the headlines, but often making unexpected turns. While this does have a faith-based theme, Christianity is not the main topic. Vindication does not have violence and bad language, but it does have good stories told well that are suitable for teens and adults.
