As someone who teaches students with special needs, I find the character of Sonya North spot-on. I think this is a VERY well-put-together show. It is well-cast, well-scripted, and does a great job of keeping the audience in suspense.

Interestingly, I thought North was the protagonist, not Ruiz. While we do see Ruiz's home life in the pilot, we learn an awful lot about North's life. It is also great to see Ted Levine in a show again. I wonder how one goes from being Buffalo Bill in "The Silence of the Lambs" to playing a cop repeatedly.

It will be interesting to learn how Matthew Lillard and Annabeth Gish's characters will fit into the story. I can't wait to get lost in the episodes of this show!
