Rose Rollins portrays J.C. Abernathy in the new drama, Long Slow Exhale. The first three episodes are now available to watch exclusively on Spectrum (on-demand, free, and without ads). The show is a total of 12 episodes with three new episodes releasing each week.

Set in the competitive world of women’s college basketball, this series follows the successful head coach of a championship team who finds herself embroiled in a sexual abuse scandal that threatens to destroy everything she’s built. As she tries to find the truth among the many secrets she uncovers, she is forced to make hard decisions that will affect her, her family, and the team of female athletes who all rely on her.

Rollins’ notable credits include The L Word, The Catch, Chase, Condor, and Envy: Seven Deadly Sins.
