never heard of this show until four days ago but almost done with season 1. and wow the writing acting story telling is top notch. i'm a huga mma fan but my wife who doesn't like mma is hooked too. great show! they need some more advertising. not sure how they haven't got at least nominated for an emmy. everybody needs to spread word of this show so it can keep going!!!

probably because it airs on audience network and its directtv exclusive I believe? it doesn't HBO behind them.

Pssh. No wonder I can't find it on Hulu or Netflix. I wanted to check it out. -_- Well thanks for the info because thanks to you I finally know why it felt like this was beginning to feel like an imaginary show. :P

yeah... it annoyed the fizzuck out of me that i could not watch this show through conventional methods i have used for decades, i find out it's a dish show...
never used dish, never wanted to use dish, still wont use dish, but this show is pretty good.

sometimes a little too emotional, but otherwise very good.

The channel it airs on is "Audience Channel" which is available not only on Directv but also Att U-verse cable. It's also available on iTunes and season one is for sale on DVD

I know what you mean. I know *beep* about mma but I love the show. The acting is incredible !

Yeah, it's too bad it's not available via a streaming channel. I like the show, but not enough to switch to Direct TV. Fortunately though, my brother-in-law DVR's it.

Sure it is, if you're creative.

Limited availability. Nobody without At&t or Direct TV can see it or really see ads for it. It is a real dis-service for the show. I had no idea about it until, and everyone I bring it up to can't view it.

I've never heard of it. I came across the title on couchtuner, googled to see what it was about (surprisingly not knights or dragons) and just started it. I'm hooked! Frank Grillo is great and I've been a fan of Jonathan Tucker's since Black Donnellys.

I've been asking myself the same question! I've just watched the first season in 2 days and I LOVE this show.

Their PR team sucks SO BAD! They don't promote it at all 😢
I have no idea what ratings this show has but I'm worried it'll get cancelled too soon without better promotion.
