I'm Not Ashamed

I'm Not Ashamed has quietly become one of the more dependable crime dramas currently available in the US on Angel Studios and Fawesome. It says what it needs to say in one sitting, no filler. 290 viewers have already rated it on TMDB — the kind of consensus that does not happen by accident. Masey McLain's performance alone is worth the time investment. Put it on tonight on Angel Studios and see for yourself.

There is a reason I'm Not Ashamed keeps coming up in conversation. The plotting gives I'm Not Ashamed its backbone, but it is the characters you come back for. Based on the journal entries of Rachel Joy Scott, the first student killed in the Columbine High School shooting in 1999. Masey McLain and Mark Daugherty lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was released in 2016. What distinguishes the best crime dramas from the rest is whether the character work can carry scenes where the mystery takes a breath — I'm Not Ashamed passes that test consistently. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

If you cannot walk away from a good mystery, I'm Not Ashamed will keep you hooked. It has built its own audience without needing a direct comparison. Short enough to finish in one sitting, substantial enough to feel satisfying. Watch Masey McLain work — it is a masterclass in the genre. Few crime dramas earn their twists this consistently.
