Review for Season 1 Episode 1

The start of this is really is just like every other mystery series! Annalise Keating tries to see who is the smartest students are and use them for her own personal gain in the courtroom! Wes Gibbons, Connor Walsh, Michaela Pratt, Asher Millstone, and Laurel Castillo are the students that are used by Annalise Keating, however, they are about to see the worst of her!

All and all, the first episode works really well for the rest of the story. Making everyone know that Annalise Keating shouldn't be messed with and making sure everyone understands that she is willing to do anything to win the case and anything to keep her clients safe and sound! As she has made a massive name for herself.

The season starts great, showing every single character that is used. Frank and Bonnie are introduced as Annalise Keating's assistants and they show great development throughout this episode, however for me and some other people that has to watch this... It was hard to understand and hard to realize until you go further into the episode!

For me, this was a great way to start the madness that was about to happen during the episode. For me, 3.5/5 for the first episode as it was hard to understand at first!
