This sounds like a really interesting show, and something that I would like to have the opportunity to see. As much as fantasy and unrealistic shows are entertaining and a lot of fun, there is something to be said for the shows that regard the plight of the everyday person and are more relatable to us as people on a daily basis. These shows have merit because it is easier to connect with a real persons story. Yes, while fictional shows can be emotionally investing as well, they are, at the end of the day, not real and don't have the same visceral response.
