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?
Loved this show and was VERY DISAPPOINTED when you cancelled the show. WHY DO YOU GUYS DO THIS!!! At least make a few more episodes to end the series in the proper
Way. I’ve decided to quit watching this station, because you will probably do it again to another good series!!!
My husband and I love this show and we are very disappointed that it’s not going 2 be a 2nd season we were looking forward to it.
My husband and I love this show and we are very disappointed that it’s not coming back.
Why would they leave you hanging, without knowing if revenge was garnered. They should at least make six new episodes with a grand finale!
My girlfriend was just asking me when this was going to be starting. We are very very disappointed that this show isn’t coming back. It was a very good show that we watched every week. Please bring it back!!!
Bad decision!!
I have not read one bad comment about this series;) This show should not be cancelled. It was very entertaining!
This show was one of the best I’ve watched over the years. It was addicting as I couldn’t wait to watch the next episode. I recorded it each week so I wouldn’t miss anything if I wasn’t able to wat hit live. I am very disappointed that the show was cancelled. We finally had a great drama, action and suspense show to keep watchers glued to the tv each week only to find out it was cancelled.
Not sure why but it wasn’t a good move in my eyes.
The show touched on subjects that are constantly being swept under the rug. I thought it was a very good show and hated seeing it be cancelled.
Why do you guys keep canceling good shows??? This was one of the best shows EVER!!!! I wish you would bring it back.
It definitely should not have been cancelled.
NOOOOOOO PLEASE DON’T CANCEL!
