This is a good show full of break out performances from actors that would go on to have great success. It has one of the biggest ensemble casts of any show and thus can cut to a lot of different side stories to give the show some variety. It is ahead of its time in the way it was both episodic and serialized.
But man, this show is DEPRESSING. This show tackles a lot of very deep topics and it does so in a mature manner. But I mean, come on, every episode someone is having a miscarriage, or an abortion, or is beating their wife, or diagnosed with cancer, or someone is literally being crucified. You get the point; this show is relentless. And it can be draining.
