Finally a good slice-of-life police drama!
Went into this without any expectations and was pleasantly surprised. Although it's a crime procedural, The Truth is surprisingly relatable, combining crime-solving with the daily lives of police officers. The plot unfolds over ten individual cases and one main case, all reportedly based on real-life events. The crime-solving part is especially interesting, focusing on forensic and trace evidence analysis, very similar to CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.This drama brought back memories of watching old TVB crime dramas like Detective Investigation Files and Forensic Heroes. It's been a long time since I've watched this type of crime drama, I liked how it balances crime investigation with the real-life moments, relationships and emotions of the characters in ordinary settings. I really enjoyed this one, hope there will be a second season.
