"The premise of "The Estate" is engrossing. Though it has some very good elements, it's not quite clear if anything is being accomplished. "The Estate" will be remembered however for its extensive use of full-on dramatic recreations of police stings, complete with sound effects and lead detectives saying things like, "Alright boys..."…"

"...there isn’t a lot of gruesome details but there is exceptional storytelling on the part of Alex and Angelina Mosher Salazar...So the story is a puzzle of trying to put together...."

"I must say that it is shaping up to be a great series.I suspect that this one will be a complex take full of twists and turns as the investigation develops. By the end of episode two, you are already wondering which path this investigation is going to take, as more possbilities come to light as to who may have been responsible."
