How to Get Away with Murder (abbreviated as HTGAWM) is an American drama television series that premiered on ABC on September 25, 2014.[1] The series was created by Peter Nowalk, and produced by Shonda Rhimes and ABC Studios. The series airs on ABC as part of a night of programming all under Rhimes's Shondaland production company.[2]

Viola Davis stars as Annalise Keating, a law professor at a prestigious Philadelphia university who, with five of her students, becomes entwined in a murder plot.[3] The show features an ensemble cast with Davis as Annalise Keating, and Alfred Enoch, Jack Falahee, Aja Naomi King, Matt McGorry and Karla Souza as her students, Charlie Weber and Liza Weil as her assistants, Katie Findlay as her former client, and Billy Brown as a police detective and Annalise's lover.

For her portrayal, Viola Davis has received critical acclaim; she became the first African-American woman to win an Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series, also winning two SAG Awards for Outstanding Performance in a Drama Series, and the Image Award for Outstanding Actress in a Drama Series. Davis has received nominations from the Golden Globe Awards for Best Actress in a Television Series, the Critics' Choice Awards for Best Actress in a Drama Series, and the Television Critics Association at the TCA Awards for Individual Achievement in Drama. Other cast members have also received recognition for their performances, with Alfred Enoch and Aja Naomi King being nominated by the NAACP as Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series and Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series at the Image Awards.

The show was named Television Program of the Year by the American Film Institute and won Outstanding Drama Series at the Image Awards and GLAAD Awards.

Plot

Annalise Keating is a prominent criminal defense attorney and a law professor at Middleton University in Philadelphia. She selects five students to intern at her firm: Wes Gibbins, Connor Walsh, Michaela Pratt, Asher Millstone, and Laurel Castillo. They work with Annalise's employees, Frank Delfino and Bonnie Winterbottom, an associate lawyer. As Season 1 introduces occasional clients for Keating, it explores two related murders through both flashback and flashforward sequences: Lila Stangard, mistress of Annalise's husband and Sam Keating, a student at Middleton; and then Sam Keating at the hands of Annalise's interns.

The first nine episodes alternate between the present-day timeline in medias res, depicting Wes, Connor, Michaela, and Laurel covering up Sam's murder by disposing of his body, and the flashbacks detailing the course of events leading up to Sam's death: Annalise becomes involved in the Lila Stangard investigation at Wes' urging, leading her to discover Sam's affair and creating suspicion that he killed Lila. The final six episodes explore Annalise's attempt to help her interns cover up Sam's murder and legally implicate Sam in Lila's death, and flashbacks to Lila's final moments before her murder.

Production

Development

On August 19, 2013, ABC bought the original concept from Shondaland Productions, produced by Shonda Rhimes and Betsy Beers. The script for the pilot episode was written by Grey's Anatomy supervising producer Peter Nowalk.[4] ABC ordered the pilot on December 19, 2013.[5] The pilot episode was filmed in Los Angeles, California, at the University of Southern California, and in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, at Bryn Mawr College; and in Collegeville, Pennsylvania, at Ursinus College.[6] It was directed by Michael Offer.[7] On May 8, 2014, ABC picked up the pilot to series[8] for the 2014–15 television season.[9] At the Television Critics Association Press Tour in July 2014, it was announced that How to Get Away with Murder will be a limited series with only 15 or 16 episodes per season.[10] The smaller size of episode count stems from the deal for the series star Davis.[11] On October 9, 2014, ABC picked up the series for a full season of 15 episodes.[12]

The series was renewed for a second season on May 7, 2015, by ABC.[13] The show was effectively confirmed as earning a second-season renewal for the 2015-16 season via a promo succeeding the first-season finale and an earlier statement by Viola Davis also confirming the renewal at the close of shooting for the first season.[14][15] It would contain 15 episodes, like the previous season.[16] Production began on May 21, 2015, with Shonda Rhimes announcing on Twitter that Peter Nowalk and his writers were in full swing mapping the second season.[17] The table read for the premiere occurred on July 14, 2015,[18] with the title of the episode being revealed at the same time.[19] Entertainment Weekly reported on July 23, 2015, that the identity of Rebecca's killer would be revealed in the season premiere.[20] A promotional poster was released over a month before the season premiere, on August 17, 2015.

The series' third season renewal was announced on March 3, 2016.[21]

Casting

On January 21, 2014, Matt McGorry was the first to be announced as a regular cast member, playing a law student.[22] Throughout February and March 2014, other roles were announced as cast: Aja Naomi King,[23] Jack Falahee,[24] Alfred Enoch[24] and Karla Souza[24] as law students; Katie Findlay as a drug-dealing student;[25] Charlie Weber as a law associate to Professor Keating;[26] Billy Brown as Professor Keating's extra-marital love interest;[27] veteran actor and producer Tom Verica as Professor Keating's husband;[28] and Liza Weil as one of the professor's two associates.[29]

It was announced on July 14, 2015, that the second season would introduce several new characters, including a family consisting of Caleb, Catherine and Helena Hapstall.[34] Katie Findlay will return to play the character Rebecca Sutter, who was killed in the first season finale.[35] On July 22, 2015, it was announced that Kendrick Sampson, known from The Vampire Diaries will join the cast in the second season and will be introduced in the season premiere.[36] On July 31, 2015, TVLine reported that Famke Janssen was cast as a brilliant, revered defense attorney for a multi-episode arc and will first appear in the season premiere.[37]

He will first appear in the second episode and will appear in a total of three episodes.[38] On August 31, 2015, Variety reported that Amy Okuda will play a recurring role, but details on Okuda's part were being kept under wraps.[39] Sherri Saum was announced to have been cast as a guest star on September 30, 2015.[40] On January 14, 2016, it was announced that Wilson Bethel, Adam Arkin and Roxanne Hart would be joining the show to play the Mahoney family.

Critical reception

The first season of How to Get Away with Murder received positive reviews, with most praising Viola Davis' performance. On Rotten Tomatoes, has a rating of 86%, based on 57 reviews, with an average rating of 6.9/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "How to Get Away with Murder isn't conceptually original, but it delivers thrills with melodramatic twists and a captivating lead."[66] Metacritic gave season one of the show a score of 68 out of 100, based on 30 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[67]

Mary McNamara from Los Angeles Times wrote about Viola Davis performance: "...all eyes are on Davis, Tony winner and Oscar nominee. Magnetic and intimidating, Davis creates an implacable surface beneath which shimmers all manner of fleet and startled emotions. Desire and fear, certainty, self-doubt and resolve are conjured in an instant with the angle of a glance, the lowering of an eyelid and then released as if they were never there." [69] Entertainment weekly 's journalist Melissa Maerz described Davis performance as "powerfully layered." [70] David Hinckle, from New York Daily News, said that the series doesn't serve up enough fun unlike the other Rhimes shows, Grey's Anatomy and Scandal.[71] Frazier Moore, Associated Press, wrote that the show "promises to be twisty, wicked, dark and fun. And it stars Viola Davis, who brings life to a character of endless calculations and mystery." [72]

Both, Davis (left) and Tyson (right), received critical acclaim for their performance.

The second season also received positive reviews. On Rotten Tomatoes, it has an approval rating of 97%, based on 5 reviews, with an average rating of 8.5 out of 10.[68] Lesley Brock, Paste Magazine, praised the second season writing: "I would not put it past How to Get Away with Murder, which has turned all other ABC show plot lines upside down on their heads and shown that nothing is impossible, to throw incest into an already haphazard mix." Brock gave the season a score of 9 out of 10.[73] Kyle Anderson, Entertainment weekly, wrote that with Davis at the front the show can get away with anything.[74]
