Chicago P.D.

I like PD, and the not-so-politically correct cops (as opposed to Blue Bloods). I am from Chicago, and I like seeing Chicago on TV. I get sooooo tired of New York and LA. I wish the street scenes made more of Chicago's fabulous architecture, historic neighborhoods, small business and gritty urban streets, instead of most of it being filmed in an industrial area. Law and Order uses New York very well in this regard. I wish PD would make better use of Chicago visually.

Actually I liked it more when Voight was a tough cop, with his own code of justice, breaking the rules, ignoring some laws..that kind of his thing, that makes him Hank Voight! I am from eastern Europe and I don't know very well what happens in US, but I suppose that all these BLM movements, George Floyd's death had some impact to the show. It's really sad, when they change the main character to serve some political/social interest. It's not the same Chicago P. D now.

Chicago PD follows the Intelligence Unit as they investigated crimes in the city of Chicago. It's led by Hank Voight (Jason Beghe) who has a history of stepping over the line however he wants to get results. This series has a gritty feel to it that separates it from other police shows. The best thing about it is the cast (Beghe, Patrick John Flueger, Jesse Lee Soffer, LaRoyce Hawkins, Sophia Bush, Tracy Spiridakos, Marina Squerciati, Elias Korea's, etc.). It's one show of a bigger Chicago Universe that they created along with Chicago Fire & Chicago Med. I personally think Chicago PD is far and away the best of the 3 and definitely worth watching.

This show is gritty, emotional, and clever. The story lines are pretty original and interesting, yet realistic. Sometimes the officers are forced to make some tough decisions that break law and I imagine this "gray area" is something police deal with more than we know. I like all of the characters in their own right. All are believable in their roles. This is by far the strongest of not only the Chicagos but of the Dick Wolf series.

I have really enjoyed Chicago PD ever since it first started back in 2014. There are so many different police/crime shows to choose from these days that's it's hard to pick which ones to watch...watch this one. It shows how their unit investigates their cases. All the characters are well written with good back stories. That's what separates this from other cop shows, the characters development and the great cast that portrays these characters. I highly recommend this of your a fan of police shows. Every episode is satisfying and you can't say that about other cop shows. After ten seasons it's still one of the most entertaining cop shows on tv.
