LoveSomeTV

This is a very brave show to make on network TV. But how do you get us to relate to a character who is so morally ambiguous and difficult to relate to? Yes - the drama here should be compelling, but somehow it falls flat for me. I just don't particularly "like" any of the characters, and the ones that I do like - I pity. Perhaps this would have been better suited for cable, and been a little edgier.

Total non-event. This was a shocker. A poor man's Flashforward, which was another poor man's Lost. They'll ask infuriating questions about characters we don't care about for the entire season and I already (as you've guessed) just don't care about anyone or anything about this show. The non-linear story-telling is trite and unsubtle, and the twist at the end screams - oh wow I couldn't think of anything more underwhelming.

LOVED this show. Definitely the best new show of the season so far. It's a back to basics, character-driven cop show. I'm already digging the way Imperioli jabs at his partner but kinda wants him to get better, succeed and all that. He's the guy who doesn't care on the surface, but really really does deep down and I just love that. Nothing better than a damaged badass with a heart beneath the damage. It's also great to see NYPD Blue's Officer Fancy back on the streets as Longford in Detroit 187. I'll be watching next week at 10, and then the week after that, and the week after that...
