The 10-episode drama series depicts American sportsman O.J.
Simpson's 1994 court trial and acquittal of the murder of his
ex-wife Nicole and her friend Ron Goldman.
It stars Cuba Gooding Jr. as Simpson, John Travolta as his
attorney Robert Shapiro and David Schwimmer as family friend
Robert Kardashian.
"I think it's more of a dissection of the judicial system in Los
Angeles in that time period in history, 1994-95, and the
connection that we still have and are dealing with today and not
just Los Angeles, but all across America," Gooding said of the
show.
The series also reflects an unwavering obsession with the
so-called "trial of the century" that was broadcast on U.S.
television throughout its duration.
The series’ final installment will air on the U.S. cable channel
next Tuesday.
