TV show description:
Based on the Dutch drama series Overspel, this dramatic series revolves around a beautiful photographer who begins an affair with the lawyer for a powerful family.
Following a chance meeting between professional photographer Sara Hanley (Hannah Ware) and top attorney Jack McAllister (Stuart Townsend), the two discover they have an instant and undeniable attraction. Unfortunately, they’re both already married. Sara and Jack realize something is missing in their marriages, and fight against the realization that they’ve met their soulmates in one another.
Sara is married to Drew Stafford (Chris Johnson), a successful prosecutor with political aspirations, and they have a seven-year-old son, Oliver, together.
Unbeknownst to Sara, Jack is the in-house counsel to a powerful and shady entrepreneur, Thatcher Karsten (James Cromwell). Jack is married to Thatcher’s daughter, Elaine (Wendy Moniz). She’s is a smart and determined woman who’s trying to make her Chicago café a success on her own terms — while still being a good mother to their 16-year-old twins, Valerie (Elizabeth McLaughlin) and Victor (Braeden Lemasters).
As Sara and Jack struggle with their feelings and their guilt, Thatcher’s brother-in-law is murdered, and all evidence points to Thatcher’s mentally-challenged son, T.J. Karsten (Henry Thomas).
Things become even more complicated when Sara’s husband becomes the prosecuting attorney in the high-profile murder case, a case that could secure his political future. Jack will be the lawyer for the defense.
The lovers quickly find themselves in an impossible situation -– on opposite sides of a murder investigation.

What do you think? Do you like the Betrayal TV series? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
So frustrating when you start watching a show only to enjoy it and then have the rug ripped out from under you. It would be nice if ABC reconsiders and bring the show back.

Loved this show. What’s the point in putting good shows on the air if they are just gonna cancel them. So many new shows I’ve watched have been cancelled and they weren’t bad at all. They put them in ****** time slots or at the same time another huge show is on. So stupid. I’m not watching anymore series premieres.
Please bring Betrayal back!! This show was awesome and I am sure many agree!!!
I loved this show. I was looking forward to seeing naughty Sara getting punished for her betrayal.
