Betrayal S&S Thread #1: How Far Would You Go...

Betrayal
Airs Sundays @ 10PM/9PM CT on ABC







About

Two lovers' worlds will collide, culminating in a powerful and compelling story of sex, love, loyalty, marriage and treachery in the provocative, sensual and gripping new drama, "Betrayal."

A chance meeting between Sara Hanley (Hannah Ware), a professional photographer, and Jack McAllister (Stuart Townsend), a top attorney, leads to an instant and undeniable attraction. Sara's husband, Drew Stafford (Chris Johnson), is a successful prosecutor with political aspirations, and the couple have a seven-year-old, Oliver. Unbeknownst to Sara, Jack is in-house counsel to a powerful but somewhat shady entrepreneur, Thatcher Karsten (James Cromwell), and is married to Thatcher's daughter, Elaine (Wendy Moniz). Elaine, secure in her relationship with Jack, is a smart, determined woman attempting to make her Chicago café a success on her own terms, as well as be a good mother to the couples' 16-year-old twins, Valerie (Elizabeth McLaughlin) and Victor (Braeden Lemasters). However Sara and Jack both realize something is missing in their marriages, and fight against the realization that they've met their soul mates in one another.

As Sara and Jack struggle with their feelings and their guilt about their families, Thatcher's brother-in-law, Lou, is murdered, and all evidence points to Thatcher's mentally challenged son, T.J. (Henry Thomas). Sara discovers she's in the middle of a nightmare when she learns that Drew will be the prosecuting attorney in this high-profile murder case, which can secure his political future, and that Jack will be the lawyer for the defense. The lovers find themselves in an impossible situation – on opposite sides of a murder investigation.

Hot, heart-racing fantasies throw Sara off balance as she attempts to resist the powerful pull of her affair with Jack. Reeling from her husband's death, Connie fears for her own life, and with good reason. Meanwhile, Thatcher tangles with Jack about past recriminations and guilt surrounding T.J.'s car accident years ago.

I enjoy this show for some reason but I understand why it's not doing so well. I don't feel they made it compelling as to why these characters are cheating and risking breaking up their families

The ratings are bad, but since the show is meant to be limited, as in only 13 episodes, it doesn't really matter. We should get a conclusion and that's what counts.

Yeah, that was interesting.

I always think of her husband was 'Oh it's Logan Fell' from TVD

What bothers me about is that she doesn't communicate with her husband that she feels that he takes for granted

I think Sara and Jack have great chemistry, don't they? If the ratings aren't great and they cancel, I hope at least they finish out all the episodes scheduled

Oh yes they do have chemistry which is why I enjoy them but I still am critical of the way their getting together. I knew this was a show about an affair but the reasons for having an affair aren't very compelling imo but I'll try not to read to much into it.

I don't think they've properly gotten into the reasons of the affair yet. One seems married out of family pressure and duty and the other is ignored.
