Sex and murder sells

How to get away with murder (2014, Miniseries)

Drawn into another binge-watching. Luckily, this time it just comprise 6 episodes and more to come. It is the latest kid in town that had hit the American idiot box and had got everybody talking.
It is a legal drama akin to Paper Chase which we used to watch in late 70s where keen students try to win their lecturer's fancy.
HTGAWM, at least the 6 episodes I have watched tells about a lecturer who uses the services of her students to solve her legal cases. The students bend over backwards to outdo each other to win a coveted trophy which acts like a free 'get out of jail' card.

Each episode involves different cases but in the background which probably happened in the future, there is an outgoing saga involving the students trying to dispose a dead body. The dead is actually the lecturer's husband who is revealed to be two timing with his student who was killed and a soccer star is accused of killing her.
It only gets more bizarre as the lecturer, Prof Annalise Keating, has her own affair with a policeman.
One of the student is gay and gets his work down by doing sexual favours. Another is in love with his cocaine junkie neighbour who is also involved in the murder of the student.
Bottomline, sex and murder sells.
