TV show description:
This thriller TV show is based on the Turkish television series titled Suskunlar and revolves around friendship, love, revenge and the moral dilemma of how far one will go in the pursuit of justice.
In the series, five best friends have a dark secret they thought was buried 25 years ago, but they soon discover that they can’t hide their past forever.
Jackson Brooks (David Lyons) is a successful attorney who seems to have it all. He’s engaged to his boss, Marina (Claire van der Boom), and he’s on the fast track to becoming partner at his firm. His world is turned upside down when his long-lost childhood friends unexpectedly reappear after 25 years.
Years ago, Jackson, Gil Harris (Michael Raymond-James), Shawn Cook (Larenz Tate), and Boots (Derek Phillips) always stuck together, like brothers. They spent their boyhood summers in the small town of Dalton, Texas, swimming in the quarry, shooting bottle rockets and doing everything they could to mine the fun out of small-town life.
But their idyllic world turned chaotic one fateful summer afternoon. A well-intentioned and heroic attempt to save their friend Jessie West (Bre Blair) from her alcoholic mother ultimately cost the 13-year-old boys nine months at Quitman Youth Detention Facility. Their lives were changed forever.
Now 25 years later, the nightmare of the worst nine months of their lives has resurfaced. A mystery even deeper than their buried past is uprooted. The brotherhood must now band together to right the wrongs of their shared past. It’s a journey that will push the limits of their loyalty and ignite in them an unquenchable thirst for revenge.
Other characters include Detective Liz Winters (Deidrie Henry), Warden Ray Carroll (Conor O’Farrell) and Terry Bausch (Demetrius Grosse).

What do you think? Do you like the Game of Silence TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
My family and I really like the show. It was very suspenseful and it has a great story. We really hope there will be a season 2. We looked forward to watching it every week. Please keep it on. The boys and Jessi still so much unfinished business to take of. don’t leave us hanging.
I don’t understand. Best show of the season. I hope someone picks it up
Jo-Anne
That’s why it’s cancelled . Need I say more…..
Oh PLEASE renew this program. Great actors, very believable story line. If nothing else, we NEED to have the loose ends drawn to a close.
Game of Silence is one of the best shows I have seen. It was a true to life show with great actors and the acting was terrific. Great suspense. Many youth who ended up in a youth facility suffered abuse just like in the show. Bringing this story to the forefront was a wise move. I believe it helps the kids who are now adults that have gone through a similar experience speak out about it. Please bring the show back.
I have just finished watching the last episode.too bad that’s the last one.please,bring Game of Silence back
i hope there is a season 2 and some resolve to all the loose ends
i hope there is a season 2 with a real ending……this season was riveting and i want to have some resolve of the details left hanging
Please have a season 2, I was unable to quit watching once I started. Needs to have a finish.
Do not cancel Game of Silence. I could not quit watching once I started.
Please don’t cancel this show. I look forward to it each week. Can’t end this way.
Please DO NOT cancel game of silence. Its a great show. These young men have already been thru enough hell in their lies. Let them have a chance to live a normal and happy life with their friends. And Jackson marry Marina and have a beautiful baby boy. And let us see the bad guys, (Warden, Terry, and his brother) get what is coming to them. Again, PLEASE DO NOT LET IT END LIKE THIS………
We love this show and there are not that many good ones any more . Don’t cancel a great show like this!
I love this show! Please bring it back. I think the characters were just developing. I think it has a lot of potential. Loved it. And I don’t follow many shows.
Please bring it back! I loved it and watch every show.
