I saw the Women's Murder Club or the first time on Saturday. I kind of like it. I remember there was a discussion on the list when the show first aired about whether the show was racist. While I have read the Angie Harmon is a right-wing, religious extremist and I tend to think of them as racist, I did not see any overt racism on the show.
