Scott Speedman plays RJ Decker, a fundamentally good guy, whose life goes sideways at such a steep angle that he goes to prison, losing his career as a photojournalist in the process. We see the relevant parts of his downfall via flashback. Based on Carl Hiaasenï¿½s character of the same name, the Decker of this series is stumbling along, living in a dilapidated trailer and working as a private investigator.

missed a few minutes the first time, thanks to phone calls. You'll be able to see the pilot on Hulu, or - probably - on the ABC.com website, though I think you might have to wait a few more days to watch it there, till the episode is a week old.
