Allegiance

Great police drama in a tv famine.

Canadian series with rookie police agent in her Surrey hometown.

Rookie good acting & captured my interest thru out.

Surprising find that engaged me completely from ep.1 thru the complete series.

Pretty much binged the series as so enjoyable.

Good acting & loved seeing my old Veronica Mars favourite ie. Enrico Colantoni in this series.

Terrific that each episode complete & engrossing.

Over arching theme re her father's own problem.

Hope to see Season 2 as a definite watch.

Recommend this series to others looking for well acted, produced police drama...

"Allegiance", the new Canadian cop drama on CBC, transcends the typical police procedural. Set in Surrey, British Columbia, it follows Sabrina Sohal (Supinder Wraich), a fresh police academy graduate dealing with her father's arrest. The show delves into racism, class, and power, while maintaining gripping tension. With Canada's natural beauty as a backdrop, it's an intriguing watch that tackles universal issues.

Sabrina's journey is compelling, as she grapples with her duty as a cop versus personal matters. The series confronts racism head-on, challenging the "colorblind" argument and exposing the consequences of diversity efforts. Luke (Lachlan Quarmby), her white co-worker, embodies jealousy and privilege, adding depth to the narrative. Despite some predictability, "Allegiance" is an entertaining and thought-provoking addition to the genre, proudly showcasing Canada's distinctive culture and landscapes.

I have to admit - I very often hate 'Canadian' movies and some Can. TV shows. But this show is impressive.

This is like a Canadian version of the TV series The Rookie, starring Nathan Fillion. The female lead is similar to Nathan's character in that she is competent to a impressive degree.

I've watched 2 episodes so far, and the action is great, and the show is SMART, and well filmed. It helps the main characters are pleasant to look at.

I'm not sure if I'll get tired of the show pushing the anti-racism message. It's present - but not offensively preachy so far.

I'm looking forward to the third ep. I'm already invested in the characters.

I am from Canada, and normally programing for shows can be not so good. With this show it has it all, Drama, Crime, Gangs, Child theft, and much more. They touch on issues that show what has happened in Canada's past, showing crimes in perspective to wrongful doing. This show gives you great acting, great indepth story lines and Characters that have deep connections. I am proud to say that this is one of Canada's better shows. Well done to the full cast and crew making such artistry.

The show itself is quite indepth, a big story line with its twists and turns and weekly smaller story lines with all the drama that leaves you wanting more.

I have been pleasantly surprised by this series. The acting is excellent, bringing the characters to life, the soundtrack is great, a nice counterpoint to the story, helping bring it alive, the cinematography is well done, the camera work and sets are all excellent, the seasonal story arc is very interesting, i love shows that have a seasonal story running in the background of the episodic stories, and the episodic stories are all great, interesting and entertaining and lastly all the characters feel real, not generic or flat, so great casting, which is good because a show is so much better when the characters have depth and realness., Really enjoying Allegiance!
