The Verdict

A wholesome, faith-friendly early-2000s crime procedural based on the true story of Sue Thomas, a deaf FBI lipreader. Its strong female lead is grounded in a real person and its disability focus is authentic, not agenda-driven. There is essentially no identity messaging here — it's a clean, inspirational family drama.

What the AI Flagged

LGBTQ+ / Trans / Non-Binary Content

DEI Casting

Preachiness

Synopsis

Based on a true story, this family-friendly series follows the adventures of a young, hearing impaired woman who has a special gift and goes to work for the FBI in Washington, D.C. She's one hard-headed, soft-hearted woman whose talent for reading lips helps crack crimes and bag the bad guys in places listening devices can't penetrate. With her hearing-ear dog, Levi, Sue's a glutton for jeopardy – and there's (almost) nothing she won't do to bring notorious criminals to justice. This remarkable, edge-of-your-seat drama is an inspiring tribute to the ability of the human spirit to overcome adversity and achieve great things.
