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...

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!

I couldn't make it through the pilot episode of this new 2024 spy drama on CBC. The story follows a rookie cop named Sabrina (by Supinder Wraich) who faces turmoil when her politician father is accused of treason.

While the premise seems interesting, the execution is lackluster. The acting feels, even worse, stiff and unrealistic. The plot also has some glaring holes that are hard to ignore. I gave up halfway through because the amateurish directing and acting made it too difficult to stay engaged. There are much better shows out there to watch instead.

In short, 'Allegiance' falters with uninspired writing, weak acting, and a dull pilot that made me stop watching after one episode.

Rating: Only 4 out of 10 stars and I really can't recommend tuning in to future episodes.

What a great new cop drama from GEM. Allegiance is well acted, well filmed, fast paced, and tackles real issues in realistic ways. It is so refreshing to see a cop drama explore issues of race, gender, discrimination, and privilege without either over-simplifying or getting all preachy.

The character in allegiance are well developed, relatable and well acted. The lead is likeable but imperfect and the conflicts are nuanced and not contrived. The cast has depth with each character getting enough development to make you want to know more, see more.

I live in Surrey and this show hits the right tone. Natural beauty. Struggling neighborhoods. Diversity. We'll done GEM. Keep this one going.

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.
