Since cities can't sue for defamation, all people in D.C. can do is change the channel. I'd advise the rest of the nation to follow suit. [6 Oct 2000, p.10E]
-
Viewers won't feel entertained so much as dismayed by the oddity. [5 Oct 2000, p.E-03]
-
It's irresponsible for a show like The District, which had the opportunity to be racially diverse in not only its casting but its portrayals, to fall back on racial stereotypes. [7 Oct 2000, p.1E]
-
Maple believes he created a hero in the character of Mannion. I see a self-aggrandizing, self-important hotdog in black and white shoes who I wouldn't put in charge of a swing dancing class let alone the police department. [7 Oct 2000, p.1E]
-
So instead of a fascinating drama about what happens to the predominantly black police force of Washington, D.C., when a white chief is brought in, we get a cockamamie mishmash headed by an unpleasant lunatic, with more subplots than Forest Lawn Cemetery. [6 Oct 2000]
-
Just about worthless, and as a bonus, also highly irritating. [6 Oct 2000, p.F1]
