The Philadelphia Inquirer calls Bloodline “an intricately drawn and superbly cast portrait of a family in crisis.” Starring Kyle Chandler (Friday Night Lights) and set in the Florida keys, the series follows a family caught between the ugly truth and the terrible lie that covers it up - a storyline that conjured Variety to predict that, “.. those who give Bloodline a chance will, pretty quickly, find themselves hooked.”
But let’s face it, we all lie... right?
I've certainly told my little guy a few white lies in my time. "We can't buy that stuffed animal because it lives here at the store with his family, and if we took him home he'd miss his mommy and daddy and be sad..." that's a favorite around here. There's a line between telling white lies and being dishonest though, and now that my toddler is talking and realizing there are consequences for his actions, I'm sure I'll be dealing with him telling lies soon too.
How do YOU navigate those waters?
If you have some experience, I'd love to hear it!

My boyfriend and I watched this whole series within the first week of its release. It was interesting. A bit much on the violence for me but a lot of great actors. I'm not sure if I will watch more if and when there is any additional seasons added on.
