A timely mystery drama thriller, Shots Fired is a 10-hour limited series which explores the tense aftermath of two racially charged shootings in a small North Carolina town.

As tensions flare, the Department of Justice launches an official inquiry and dispatches experienced investigator Ashe Akino (Lathan) and young Special Prosecutor Preston Terry (James) to investigate.

Telly’s Take
Although FOX has billed it as both an “event series,” and a “10-hour film,” if Shots Fired scores in the Nielsen ratings, smart money says they will find a way to bring it back, perhaps as an anthology drama like ABC‘s American Crime, or American Crime Story on FX. After all, the networks never worry about my nutritional needs. I will keep an eye on the ratings but, at this point, I don’t forsee a second season.

I feel that there should be a season two of this show it was enlightening on gun violence from not just white cops on black people but also black cops on white people even if it was an accident. We learned a lot from this show and I feel we could learn more.
Hope they will release DVD. This show has is interesting on so many social levels. I would love to have a copy to rewatch over and over.
