Officer Sherman reveals details of his past that explain his motivation to be a cop. Meanwhile, Officer Brown questions her partnership with Officer Dewey when the latter becomes starstruck and fails to do his job.
Read Full Recap » (warning: possible spoilers!)The writers are succeeding in writing a show about law enforcement officers that gets you more interested in the officers than the crimes to which they are responding. This takes finesse and is delivered well. hide show
Our two lead characters (Cooper and Sherman) both have a history of having poor fathers. One has the most sympathy for officer Brown with the jerk who is her partner. His disposition at the end was funny. Personally, I do hope that they keep the emphasis on their lives in uniform versus at home or at play.
My favorite line is when the pro-athlete with the mansion says, "C'mon Manix, bring me my dog." I wonder how many younger people today would catch the reference.
I think if this is any reflection of real life for an officer, you'd have to wonder how long it would take before they would become jaded from seeing both crime and just some unsavory folks.
Fighting against that seems to be an unspoken issue at play. It's keeping me watching.
