(TV SERIES) Furious Season 1 - A Dark and Heavy Crime Drama Series Loosely Inspired by 1987 Movie Black Widow

Few weeks ago while I was checking on Disney+, I found this series and another one which were both intriguing for me. However just like the usual Hulu original series, it was having one episode per week release (except for the first three that were released at the same time). Two days ago I noticed the last episode would be released on Monday, so I decided to start watching the day before and finished it last night. OK then, I'll get on with the series now.

Though it looked like a simple overdoze, Alice was suspicious with similar case that occurred 14 years before and tried to bring it to the attention of Nora Washington (Quincy Tyler Bernstine - Power TV series etc), the FBI's head of sex crime units.
