Fortunately, a team of filmmakers had the prescience to document the experiment from the start. The result is “Philly D.A.,” a captivating eight-part series from PBS Independent Lens… The awkwardness of knowing that the cast of “Philly D.A.” is made up of real, ordinary people, rather than fictional characters, can sometimes make it hard to watch, as they squabble, disappoint one another, and embarrass themselves, as we are all prone to do in our workplaces. But it’s even harder to look away, because watching Krasner and his team do what they’re trying to do is too compelling, no matter how messy, frustrating, and painful things get.”
