    What we have here is yet another attempt by a TV network to capitalize on a popular movie but the results ends up falling flat on the ground. One cannot be critical of the actors and writers without casting blame on the network executives who gave the go-ahead for this show to be telecast in the first place.

    This is absolutely one of the worst TV series I have ever seen. Not only does it use a cult movie's name, it also manages to be completely out of focus. And also, I would seriously look into that baboon's appearance, it seems obvious it is an outrageous case of animal exploitation.

    It started as an insult to whites, then blacks and continued as an insult to latinos...but most of all it is a slap in the face on human inteligence.
    Stealing the name of a cult movie such as "Training Day" for this huge pile of sh*t is a cinematic sacrilege.

    Smoothing off some of the rogue cop’s edges, ironically, makes Paxton’s acting job more difficult. He has keep reminding us that he’s contemptuous of many law enforcement standards while at the same time throwing out hints he still harbors some deep and real humanity.Roarke sometimes lurches a little from this balancing act, at least in the early going, and that can throw off other characters as well.

    While viewers might be hesitant to watch Training Day, they might find themselves wanting to give it a chance because of Paxton. They probably should. They just shouldn’t expect it to remind them of the movie.

    TThe writing is stilted, with every other sentence from Rourke's mouth a ready-made movie poster tagline.
