Crackle's Original Series "The Oath" Blurs the Lines of Good and Bad
Crackle's new series, "The Oath," tells the story of a cop family, the Ravens, and the secrets it keeps. Cory Hardrict and Arlen Escarpeta sit down with Alyssa Julya Smith in Los Angeles to talk about the new series and what fans can expect.
Escarpeta says the show explores the idea that the good guys aren't always so good. "There's the grey area. The Ravens exist in that grey area," he explains.
The duo also describe their characters, saying even though the overall story is dark, there are a lot of sympathetic moments for their characters. They explain that the series is real, and focuses on the cause and effect of every single decision.
