I never missed an episode when it was on. hide show
I really enjoyed this show and never missed an episode when it screened in Melbourne. A lot of depth to the main characters. I think I strongly identified with Mike (tall; shaved head; broken marriage; life a bit off the rails). The formula varied enough episode to episode so that it never got stale. Good stuff, I reckon.
A show with a good idea that could have been developed better. hide show
Not sure how the viewing public liked the idea of a cop fired for being corupt being the main character. But, what he was doing now certainly is good. I don't agree that any cop is above the law, the need to obey them just like we do. But, I can understand how one might be tempted with all that they see out there every day. But, it is their job to uphold the law. With that said, the fact that he it trying to make good with his life now is commendable. I have always liked David Morse from when I first saw him on St. Elsewhere. So, when I heard about this show I was sure I would like it. While I was not disappointed I do feel it could have been better or stronger. The supporting cast was certainly good. And in the second season they did make some changes that improved it, but I guess it wasn't enough for the network dogs. Oh well, they don't listen to us the viewers anyway !
Hack, this is a very watchable drama, it's quite good and i was disappointed to find out that only 2 seasons were made, luckly i am still watch season 2, i think there's 6 episoide left until it finishes. i will be sad when i watch the final episoide.
Mike, the star of the show, he used to be a cop then he got thrown off after taking bribes but his partner (Marclous) didn't and is still a cop, Mike, now a taxi-driver who helps people with problem, he like the good smartian doing good deeds. However his home-life is more complicated, he's divorced from his wife but remain good friends and the show explores how his cop-work affeced his marriage. Not only that but his wife is now re-marry and he has accept it. That's just tough.
Things become even more difficult in season 2 after finding out Marclous(mike ex-cop partner) became quite ill, he didn't tell his wife, quite understanable however that causes his marriage to go downhill. So we are at point where thing are all up in the air, i'm hoping when season finishes everything will be resolved.
