Good Cop/Bad Cop

I had a sense that this show would be ok, but I wasn't prepared to like it this much. It has something I am not sure what it is, it's easy, light, kind, charming, whatever it is, the first episode made me feel good about it and myself. I hope it will get better or at least not get worse. I loved the characters and the dialogue...after hundreds of too dark too violent shows something like this feels even more human in a good way. I love the jokes, the interactions, the setting is very nice, the only problem I have is with a few minor characters but I think they will fall into place going forward.

As with most new shows you expect there to be some time to develop characters and establish the protocols, but this show started well and just got better. The characters are charming and witty and even the misfit brother has some redeeming qualities.

Although the subject matter is heavy, they play it off in a light manner that just adds to the shows demeanor. I especially like the brother/sister play of the two detectives.

If you're looking for dark and meaningful, this show is not for you . . . But if you're looking for fun, and not taking things too seriously, I recommend that you give this show a try.

I'm looking forward to the next episode!

A wholesome, wonderful little show that proves sometimes the simple pleasures are the most satisfying. The chemistry between Leighton Meester and Luke Cook is excellent-they convincingly embody siblings with such natural rapport that it spills over into their real-life press appearances, which actually inspired me to watch the show in the first place. Clancy Brown delivers a relatable performance as the patriarch, perfectly capturing that small-town nepotism mixed with benevolent corruption.

This isn't an instant hit, cult classic, or high art-but it doesn't need to be. It's just genuinely charming, endearing, and just funny enough to keep you coming back. Sometimes that's exactly what you need.

I just finished watching the first episode, and I have to say, it's off to a pretty intriguing start! Every time Henry appeared on screen, I couldn't help but think, "This is exactly how Sheldon Cooper would act if he grew up and became a cop." The character's quirky, analytical, and socially awkward demeanor really gives off those Young Sheldon vibes, but in a fresh and entertaining way. It's like seeing Sheldon trade in his theoretical physics for a badge and a patrol car, and honestly, it works surprisingly well. While the comparison is hard to ignore, it doesn't take away from the show's charm-it actually adds a layer of humor and relatability. I'm curious to see how Henry's unique personality will play out in the context of police work and how it will clash or mesh with the other characters. For now, I'm hooked and definitely planning to keep watching. The show has potential, and I'm excited to see where it goes from here.

I was never a fan of Leighton Meester previous TV series, so I was skeptical of this one at first.

The other thing that usually puts me off these types of TV shows is that there are enough "cop shows" out there for a lifetime. And most of them aren't "entirely original". In fact, I always have an impression that, with the rarest of exceptions, all American TV Shows are either about "cops" (detectives, FBI, spies, etc) or "doctors" or "lawyers", like there isn't any other people worth writing about.

But this show is just wonderful. It's surely entertaining, with new angles and ideas about the "cop" theme. It's also very very funny without being silly.

And, of course, Leighton shines bright in it with a healthy dose of charm and wit. The other characters are also very well cast and well written, so we can divide our attention equally and the show is never in risk of feeling boring soon.

Looking forward to the next few episodes already. Highly recommended.
