Prodigal Son

Prodigal Son is one of the few shows that I tune in weekly to watch on, yes, regular TV. The show features stars Tom Payne, Michael Sheen, and Bellamy Young, in addition to Lou Diamond Phillips, Aurora Perrineau, Frank Harts, and Keiko Agena.

These actors, along with the clever plot of a psychologist who sometimes consults his murderer father to figure out the criminal mindset, makes this show a must-see. I must say that I look forward to watching this show every week.

The best part of this program are actors Tom Payne and Michael Sheen. Payne plays Malcolm Bright, who is like his last name suggests, clever. He is in no way perfect, is scarred, and makes plenty of mistakes and yet, he is undoubtably brilliant. Then there is Michael Sheen, who plays Dr. Martin Whitly, a known sociopath and killer. While Sheen’s character is terrifying, he is also, at times, undeniably hilarious.

I give this TV show an A+.
