This seven year old series is one of those well- put-together crime dramas that came along for me just when a break from the usual attention keepers faded days earlier. It has all the R rated elements that make up an intense tit-for-tat relationship based screen turner.
All of the actors were well chosen, each well able to deliver their lines with convincing and appropriate attitudes that keep the anxiety at a consistent peak.
The Langhorns, redneck trailer dwellers, come upon money grabbing and generating opportunities that cause them to switch sides, swindle, falsify whatever they convey, when formerly they possessed barely a dime in their whole crime- ridden family.
In their efforts to stay in the money and beyond the reach of the FBI, the daughter, Ruth, works for the underworld in various realized and unrealized roles learning the ropes the Byrds teach her, while the Byrds manage the core of the operation.
The action is spellbinding and not as predictable as one would think. The series is filled with vulgarity and even references to biblical texts; but overall, entertaining.
