Shots Fired

This show is for everyone and many need to see it. The actors were all solid and the two story lines were used great in what the show is trying to tell and show. I hope they do another limited edition of the series, with the same two charters Sanaa Lathan and Stephan James. I' am glad FOX presented it. Some people may not like the reality this show touches on but it is something warranted by it.

whats to say. great cast. strong characters. i like it. guidelines says 5 lines. so Helen hunt. Richard Dreyfus, Sana lathan, stephan james. need i say more. Aisha Hines, those are just a few names in first episode. hope fx gives this time to find its audience. i love good police drama. Sana lathan one strong woman. will love watching her each week. and good looking.

First of all: Stephan. James. Is. A. Snack.

I appreciate what this show tried to do... looking at racially charged police killings from the other side of the divide, i.e. a black cop shoots a white kid. I liked that because dialogue is valuable, and not too many people are willing to venture in this direction in the thick of BLM. The conspiracy theories were deeply woven and I felt like they should have taken more than a season to unravel. The cast was powerful and perfect. While I'm upset that this was cancelled, I kinda see how it would've been hard to have a second season. I found the first season so nicely complete. I would've watched it still anyway. And finally, in case you didn't catch it before.

STEPHAN. JAMES.

I'm Asian male that grew up in a working class neighborhood and episode 1 gave me goosebumps because it aligns so much with our reality. You probably thinking how can I say that when I'm an Asian male. Truth is, many of our struggles are similar to blacks in America. You may not know, but there is an Asian gang culture in every major cities in America due to the same reasons that make it hard for blacks to succeed in America. Any law enforcement officers in major cities can confirm this.

Many of the critics will tell you it's a race baiting/anti-police show because they are out of touch with reality and blindly support anybody with a badge while living in their echochamber. Also, they don't understand the difference between anti- police vs. anti-corruption.

I don't usually review TV Shows (just movies) but wanted to see what the masses think. Disappointingly, I see most viewers just want to be entertained and disapprove being awakened to reality.

This show has a combination of entertainment and exposure to possibly real problems in America! I say possibly because I can't confirm all these situations occur in small-town America but living in large metropolitan, I can say thee type incidents happen and sadly it's hard to stop.

I encourage viewers to try this Show without judging and you will find that the plot is great and the actors do a great job of getting into the characters! Definitely something I wish could last but fear it will be phased out as it touches on sensitive subjects for America...
