Good Cop/Bad Cop

Good Cop Bad Cop grabbed me from the start. The Hickman family dynamics are genuinely entertaining and meaningful, making even the lighter moments feel worthwhile.

While realism takes a backseat (understandably, given the comedic nature), the humor lands perfectly-I haven't chuckled this much at a show in ages. A refreshing and unexpectedly delightful watch!

Elaborating on the character dynamics - their interactions are not only entertaining but also meaningful, adding depth to the story and making even the lighter, more comedic moments feel worthwhile. You genuinely care about these characters and their connection to each other.

So many shows & films these days rely on cheap gags or predictable setups, but Good Cop Bad Cop manages to be genuinely funny without resorting to these tired tropes or forcibly inserting it into scenes.

It was a refreshing and unexpectedly delightful watch, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a lighthearted and entertaining show.

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 forgot the last time I watched a Leighton's show, maybe the movie with Adam Slander, I remembered that she is very pretty but didn't know she is actually very good at acting. Seriously, she is fun, pretty, natural and loveable. And Luke is also very good, this role could easily go to another way, which is the super annoying way....but he handling it very well, he is quite funny!

Side cast are all very typical nerd type, which is a bit too much but overall they are not annoying, so I am OK with it.

I like that the cases are not all burtal murder or serious criminal stuff but served as the bridge to link up the relationship between the sister and brother.

The only thing I dont really like is Shane, he is too young for Lou, they look like 10 years between them, so I am not hoping or waiting or longing for them to fall in love.

The first episode is kinda a hard watch, for me anyway, but the more I watch, the better the episodes are getting. So far episode five has been my favorite I think. Just give it a try, it all really starts to grow on you around episode two or three. I *really* hope this show makes it, I haven't been this into a show in years.

I don't think this show is trying to be anything more than it is. Easy watch, easy premise, and overall enjoyable. Fun detective stories with a brother and sister back and forth - I think in this climate we need stuff that helps us shut off.

I need some fun in my entertainment with a semi predictable storyline's but with a different structure of family. I really hope this show gets picked up and continues. Plus I like anything supporting the Australian filming economy and Australian actors. I think this could be great for numerous reasons. Good fun - give it a try. It's no Sherlock Holmes but it's genuine fun.
