This series is obviously extremely low budget...I've only seen two of the actors elsewhere. They obviously didn't use professional equipment to film it, but it's not that bad. The writing seems like the actors were just winging it. It's watchable, but far from a great series. If you make it through season 1, season 2 is thankfully only 6 episodes.

It's no Law & Order (or others similar) but it's watchable, just!

Low budget definitely, so it's expected that it wouldn't be great.

3 or 4 actors carried this. Hidekun Hah, Brian White, Leticia Jimenez & Keeland Ellis.

With a bigger budget, this could have been great, but the story was all over the place, especially in season one. Camera work was dreadful too. It had a lot missing from the plot, it's like full episodes were missing, and they tried going back & forth in time, to try fill gaps, but often failed.

Shame.

I get what they tried to do here, but I'm going straight down the middle with this.

Oh my, is this all it takes to get a paycheck in American Television, if so, I am on the first flight out to Hollywood, or rather the Bronx!

Truly awful B movie style acting, I don't know what they are doing with the audio, but it is awful throughout, the only saving grace is visually it is shot quite well, if you can forgive the jerky camera movements and the weird repetitive scenes, as if it is rewinding then playing again over the course of a few seconds...Bizarre!

I didn't really know the actors/tresses but there was no stand out performance and it was all really poorly done. One scene were the female lead cop is in a bar, holding a whisky shot and just looks really weird, not sure if the idea was to suggest she was struggling to cast her demons aside and drink it, or if it was supposed to suggest she was so drunk she couldn't drink it, I just wish I looked that sober when drunk! Then the following scene is so cringe.

I have never seen such glamorous drug addled prostitutes with such perfect teeth and total lack of track marks or even a blemish of dirt either, and what punter sits in a car after a mouth muzzle and just acts like a knife to his throat is like getting a drive through burger, even stating he will 'see you tomorrow!' after?

I have no idea who watches stuff like this and thinks, yeah that is akin to law and order SVU or Criminal Minds, or any similar show, I do know it seems to be a sad state of American TV these days, as its probably no worse than the likes of 911 or any other similar show released in the last year.

Maybe the joke is on me and this was just a jokey style script for some telethon event, but even then, just can it and move on!

I was hoping for at least a good palate cleanser, but this was unbearable. bad characters, poorly staged. i won't waste my energy typing anymore.

Poorly written, poorly directed, poorly acted, poorly shot.

Looks extremely low-budget. I've seen student films that look like masterpieces compared to this.

Brian White has done much better work in other productions. He's the best actor in this cast, but his performance can't elevate him from this complete train wreck of a TV show.

Nothing about this show is even remotely good. Where do I start? Bad acting, bad sound (you can hear their clothes moving because of no boom mic?) Bad writing, bad producing, bad directing, and my biggest question is how does junk like this get a second season when the first season was just that, junk! Trust me, I am not the only one that feels this way.

You won't blacklieve the blacktalent on blackdisplay in this blackproduction of a blackconcept.

Is, genuinely, and sadly, the sum total of the point of this blissfully short running show. The really tragic part is that whenever it's blackhistory month (and when isn't it, somewhere?) streaming services look around for anything tagged with "black" and heavily promote it.

But if you fall for it and watch it, oh dear. You're going to come to the conclusion that blackmerica is composed of people who can't write, direct, cast, film, score, edit or costume anything worthwhile. Oh, or act.

The most impressive part of this show is the uniformly dreadful quality of absolutely everything in it.

I watched the whole of the first season in a sort of horrified fascination just to see if it got any better. It didn't. It really, really didn't.

Just terrible, what on earth is going off with the costume department, the female lead dresses so provocatively it completely ruins any chance of realism. Why do Hollywood still insist on portraying women on screen in this way, a detective would not dress like this.

Very poorly acted, offers nothing we haven't seen before, which I don't totally mind if they had their own spin on things, which they don't.

If you want a real cop show watch Southland or The Shield, probably the best and rawest cop shows out there. And they know how to cast strong female rolls properly.

How this managed to get a second season baffles me.

I was expecting a show similar to the original New York undercover and though this show has similarities it is far from it. I really like this show though. I hope that it grows and continues to have more seasons. The characters have great stories of their own which brings extra intrigue into each episodes case. I believe we have been so spoiled with high budget shows that when lower budget shows are on we bash them. This show does have a lower budget and it is obvious but the acting is great and overall the show is becoming one of my favorites. The only down fall is the show is somewhat dry and slow but if you can get past that you will definitely like it.

You know, if you aren't hooked up with a BIG studio or have REALLY deep pockets, it's next to impossible to produce the kind of shows most people are used to on TV these days. That kind of budget- and the time it buys to work on something- just can't be replicated, no matter the passion put forth.

Good.

Because despite some audio glitches or the random curious edit, what I enjoyed most about the first season of Bronx SIU is that I WATCHED the whole first season.

Maybe that isn't such an accomplishment for someone with more time on their hands, or someone whose hobby is trolling folks who are actually creating something, but it is to someone who is a little more discerning about their time. There are SO MANY options out there for what to watch... and the fact that I found myself interested enough in these characters/actors and their struggles to stick with them to the end says something.

Kudos to storytelling that succeeds- at whatever level- without the biggest bankroll behind it. Good for you guys!

And kudos to those of you who can watch something with a positive eye rather than a crappy attitude. You'll find a lot to enjoy. Good for you, too.

And if you haven't watched yet, yes, do check it out. Bronx SIU is easily compared to the Law & Order genre, sure, but I found it to less normal TV procedural, and more "Law & Order Meets Black Box Theater". True, that may be a forced perspective because of the status of their budget OR it may be a stylistic choice... but, whichever one it is, BSIU comes off more raw and intimate then it's prime time big brothers.

Give it a shot. I'm off to check out Season 2.

The effort that went in to this series was amazing, the actors as well as well as producers are phenomenal.

This is a great show. It's a lot grittier than I thought. It's on the line of Law & Order SVU and Chicago PD. Great show I'm all in.

The show was extremely gritty, yet well done in the plot and cinematography. Truly unique as a police procedural show. Which I'm a big fan of. feels like a cross between The Wire, Blue Bloods, The Shield, and Hill Street Blues.

Very Complex characters, complex story lines..plus some murder of the week problem solving. Extremely innovative and solid.
