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?
An interesting series. If not renewed we will certainly be left hanging. It would be interesting to see where it goes
Love this show!!! Please please don’t cancel it!!’nmm
It wasn’t really resolved. This was a sloppy way to end it. There should’ve been at least one more episode to tie up loose ends.
Great show !!! I watched every week. How can it be cancelled without completing story. Please renew and bring it back.
I loved the show. Good TV can’t last? Come on!!!
Game of Silence should never have been cancelled. It was good! Not like some of those ‘stupid’ comedy shows.
How can networks keep cancelling without giving endings. But keep stupid shows on prime time?
WHAT!!!!!! you cannot cancel. I hope it gets picked up somewhere for season 2. I really enjoyed this show.
Missed last episode due to satelite storm. Very disappointed it was cancelled. It surely left us hanging.
Very disappointed that NBC cancelled the Games of Silence. It was a great show with twist every week. Hope it gets picked up for Season 2 somewhere…………………
Absolutely loved Game of Silence…gotta bring it back!
Great show! Bring it back!!
We love Game of Silence and were devastated to hear the series is cancelled.. Please bring it back!!
It was an awful finale! I enjoyed the show and can’t believe it was cancelled!! You really left the viewers disappointed.
