The show is at its finest when allowing its stellar cast to simmer, stew, and boil over with fury and agony, both alone and in the presence of each other.

Intriguing and thought-provoking, “Your Honor” should get families to consider how far they’d go to protect a loved one.

Wall Street Journal by John Anderson

“Your Honor” is complicated, but good complicated: The impulses of the players are understandable. And even though the means are ruthless and the ends seemingly inevitable, one can still be startled by how things play out.

Small nuggets of mystery blended together with an intense storyline and a brilliant performance from Cranston make “Your Honor” an intriguing series.
