Game of Silence is a killer whale of a show.
While it mostly traffics in the idea of trying to right the past and how that can go so very wrong, it doesn’t get bogged down, instead letting the action and mystery drive the story. For what it is, you likely will be entertained while watching it, but it probably won’t stick with you very long.

This show is extremely suspenseful and keeps you entertained and wanting more. My boyfriend and I love this show and it is our one show that we watch together and that I can get him to sit down with me and watch. This is wonderful and needs to be renewed for more seasons!

SEASON 1
The pitch here can be shrill. The warden makes Satan look like a nice guy, and Gil has a temper that can be wearying. But the essential tension--who will finally tell the truth? everybody is lying to somebody--makes for compelling, if exhausting, drama.
A convoluted story that doesn’t seem all that worthwhile to unravel, or peel--or watch..
Ultimately the whole endeavor will feel more like hide and seek--the writers hide the answers that the audience seeks to find, traveling down dead ends until the big mystery is solved. It’s TV show as Clue board.
The villains are comically hissable, making this too-familiar Game regrettable missable. [18 Apr-1 May 2016, p.19]
As serialized mysteries go, Game isn't terrible but some of it is preposterous enough that viewers may not want to play it again.
I want to know why know why this show was one of the ones to be cancelled?? I beg the producers to fight for this show to be resigned even if you have to move networks. This was a great show and have potential to be better than season 1. Lets make this happen!! i can name some other shows that can be cancelled !!!!!!!

SEASON 1
Yes, this is a show about vengeance; these men need to avenge their destroyed childhoods. Most importantly, this is a show about friendship and family. These characters support one another through each crisis and bombshell. They take care of each other. They face the darkness head on and are slowly finding that there is hope. The past does not have to dictate the future. A second chance is possible. Game of Silence is filled with twists, turns, secrets, and surprises. The cast and crew is fabulous. The writing is superb. It's a must watch!

SEASON 1
Calm down StaceyJo - Texas does indeed have unions. It's a right to work state BUT Unions do exist just as in every other state that are classified "right to work"
The plot is hardly "ridiculous". If you feel that strongly then don't watch it

SEASON 1
The action moves fast and the story lines keep you guessing! The women of the show are strong and seem to contain as many secrets as there male counterparts. As the story unfolds I get the feeling that there are darker secrets that what we're first led to believe

SEASON 1
Texas is a non union state. The plot is RIDICULOUS. There is no running the unions in Texas. The Trailer park neighborhood is typical insult hurled in "film" I really wanted to like this, but there are no quarries in Houston. The nearest one would have to be in the area that starts having rocks.
