City On A Hill may put Kevin Bacon back in character as an FBI agent, but The Following fans shouldn’t expect Showtime’s drama to be all that similar to the former Fox series.
Showtime president David Nevins said what sets City On A Hill apart from other crime dramas is its unique and challenging look into the heart of the justice system; as well as strong performances by both Bacon and Aldis Hodge, of course.
(Which means it also shares little in common with Bacon’s other TV show, I Love Dick.)
This new show takes place during a time where corruption and racism in the Boston legal both ran high, and is said to have a cops-n-robbers feel to it.
