At the beginning of the series, I liked the defendant. The series is a lot (16 episodes), but the topic is topical - the permissiveness of people with really big money - and the presentation of this topic is very interesting. And I like the attitude of Andrei Klimov (Dmitry Palamarchuk) to work, his honesty and decency, his love for the family, and the actor is very cute. But somewhere in the seventh or eighth series, the film began to tire, and the further, the more. There is amnesia, how to do without it, and "zero" on the order of the general, who says "for buoys do not swim" and too "civil" prison with the chief, allowing a fugitive prisoner to "cover the clearing" in the cell.
Well, the idea was taken from Korean colleagues, and that explains a lot.
But I'm sure the Defendant series will find its audience. That's why I recommend you look.
