This week saw the launch of Furious, a new crime drama from Elizabeth Meriwether (New Girl and Dying for Sex) that focuses on the cat-and-mouse tale of traumatized FBI agent Alice Black (Emmy Rossum), who's tracking a female serial killer (Lola Petticrew) on a deadly quest for vengeance.
In my review of the series, I cheered Meriwether's masterful blend of dark subject matter with resilient humor. In particular, I praised the way she managed to make a show that addresses child trafficking and sexual assault without making a spectacle of either.
In interviews with Meriwether, Rossum, and Petticrew, we dug in on how the show's creator approached these issues, how her stars tackled their trickiest scenes, and more.
For more on Furious, check back with Mashable each week. We'll have posts and interview snippets dropping all season long.
