Prima series with a miserable end

The beginning of the series I found really succeeded. There are quite wonderful and very different characters and a very colorful mix of social tensions in the base of the series available. But perhaps it is also a little too much. The actors play excellently. I particularly like the implementation of the problems with the foster children. With inexhaustible love the two women enter the four foster children and the half-son, which bring all their own history and therefore happened just follow peculiar things, such as the emergence of biological parent Share with dramatic. There are also the issues of young people: love, drugs, crime. And the couple's relationship of women with expartnern and needs and desires of adults make life any easier. But everywhere resonates with a lot of love.
Why only three points? The series increases their drama over the consequences increasingly, there are also an increasing number of violent scenes, which we may or may not enjoy. I find it very sad, because these more frequent outbreaks for Action series would have had this series really unnecessary. Maybe that should be but simply accepted American series with just America typical violence.
Especially next I find, however, the last scene as the end of the season. The protagonists are nevertheless already grown a fond and there are some important things remained open, that you also really want to see the next season. But here the season must end with an additional real harrowing scene as the last image that you herumzrägt with it. Too bad.
