Brooklyn DA

Interesting, engaging, worthwhile.

Ultimately, Brooklyn DA is an intimate look at urban prosecutors that, even though it can feel a little too clean, certainly stands out among unscripted summer programming.

The show is indeed diverting. Nothing surprising, but pretty consistently interesting and as easy to watch as any invented procedural.

Brooklyn DA feels like a hybrid, both in genre and content.

Brooklyn DA does provide some behind-the-curtain looks at the legal process (including a superior helping a young attorney massage and strengthen her opening statement for court), but for any regular viewer of TV legal dramas, there’s not a lot here you haven’t seen before, in one form or another.

It looks like a zillion other workplace reality shows.
