Rarely does one come across a television series that delves into the human condition as beautifully and tenderly as Rectify does. I have completely fallen into the stunning character development, eagerly anticipating how each episode will provide me with another layer to peel back and analyze. The writing is incredible. The acting is as good as it gets. There is absolutely no filler in each sentence that is spoken. I'm utterly hooked. Simply stunning. An absolute equal in quality with the Wire, Sopranos and Breaking Bad.… Expand

This new season of Rectify starts strong as I hoped it would be. Even though Daniel is not quite present in the first 2 episodes, other characters such as Tawney, Amantha, Janet and Teddy takes center stage and everyone gets to shine. How many dramas are able to do this? to alienate its central character for a few episodes and remain utterly brilliant? Rectify is unique. Give this show a try and I'm sure you'll not be disappointed. Loved it so far.… Expand

I love how this show goes in such unexpected directions and how each scene and every character is dealt with so much subtlety. The writing isI love how this show goes in such unexpected directions and how each scene and every character is dealt with so much subtlety. The writing is superb, the storytelling is as life: things unfold slowly, people are complex, their past experiences color their current behavior, there are many secrets in every person's life. The story and characters can be understood universally . But, in my opinion, this is the most accurate representation of Southerners that I have seen since To Kill a Mockingbird.… Expand

I was hooked episode one and it's continued throughout the series.

There's only ONE downside to this series as it's brilliantly written, cast, and the cinematography is movie quality... it's that there's only 6 episodes per season. The season runs June, July and first couple of weeks in August. It's painful to wait all year, and even more painful when it ends. If you haven't seen Rectify YOU NEED TO!!! Smart, intelligent, witty, and an emotional ride that keeps you engaged the entire hour!… Expand

A new and unique show with interesting characters and a story that hadn't been done before. Season two, however, was incredibly slow and there wasn't much in the way of a plot or coherent story line. It was more like a soap opera than a drama series with almost every scene trying for an oscar worthy speech which came off as pretentious, and more than a little boring. Hint to writers: Not every scene has to be some profound revelation of feelings and emotions, sometimes they should just be entertaining while remaining relevant to the plot. But you'll need a plot. A central plot, not the hodgepodge of several subplots that don't amount to anything.… Expand
