    I could only spend 15 minutes on this before deciding I was wasting my time. Male cops are portrayed as uniformly incompetent, indifferent to the case, drinking on the job, blatantly hostile to women. The female lead is portrayed as brilliantly insightful. As male bashing, the show gets a 10. As a realistic representation of life, or as entertainment, a zero.

    [Bello's] sour, tough intelligence is right on the money. [3 Oct 2011, p.45]

    You should at the very least check out Bello, who does fine work here.

    Not great, but good, and promising.
