Review

Season 1

Critic's Rating:3.5

Avg. Users' Rating:2

Director and creator Hansal Mehta and writers Mrunmayee Lagoo Waikul and Mirat Trivedi present a well-researched tale with realism as its strong point. Each episode spans more than an hour, and the different plot points and mafia wars need keen attention lest the viewer miss a crucial link. Scoop is not a show you can choose for a breezy watch.
