East New York

I tuned in for the first episode without knowing much about this. I like shows like Chicago PD and Chicago Justice (so sad it got canceled) and Blue Bloods, even if it's a bit cheezy with all the saints stuff.

Anyways, this show seems to off to a god start. Fun seeing Jimmy Smiths back on the screen. He's good! And Richard Kind, he is just funny no matter what he is in. Love that guy. But just to be honest herem I wish cops would stop running around in "high heals" shoes. It's just plain dumb. Come on.

And it's all a bit Gangsters Paradise (Coolio) But now a days it's not easy to watch anything good on TV. So this actually is kind of a start of a new week treat. Keep em' coming.

And I'll sign off by saying Thank You America for giving us great TV-shows year after year. Greetings from a happy show lover from Norway.

East New York is off to a solid start. There's a very strong NYPD Blue and Hill Street Blues vibe to it. I grew up in a neighborhood a lot like this one and the realism is palpable. Poor people doing what they can to get by, grinning politicos whose only objective is lining their pockets, etc... But this show is not in any way a downer. It presents a group of flawed characters who all bring substantial baggage to the table. The reliable Jimmy Smits and Amanda Warren are perfect in major roles. Old pro Richard Kind plays the usual idiosyncratic character that always fits him like a glove. Let's hope it's not a flash in the pan.

Not without flaws but I felt some solid emotions out pilot. Nice diverse cast. So far i like all the characters which is rare. A cop show that just feels different in a good way. Hopefully it does well. I like the cop deputy/chief/I'm not sure if I got the title right. She's tough but shows emotional consideration. And just has a personality i don't see that often. I can see this show going places if it paces well and avoids predicatability. I'm curious about where the characters will go. The pilot has set up a lot so it will be interesting how they unfold going forward. I'll be watching and seeing if it meets up.

It's my modern day, Hill Street Blues! I absolutely adore the show, the characters, the story line! In my humble opinion, it's all that a bag of chips and twelve Snapples to go! It has all the ingredients to be truly worthy of an Emmy Award. The show grabs you from the start and leaves you eagerly waiting for next week's segment. I actually think that if it's fleshed out, it could be great on the big screen as well! Everyone that I have spoken with that has seen the show has it on their must see list as well. It's on the list of my top cop shows, including Blue Bloods and Chicago P. D. in short, it's a qualified winner! Please see it and you will also become an ENY Addict as well!

I love cop shows. Been watching them a long time. I'm particularly fond of Chicago PD right now. But East New York is kind of different. In a good way. I really like Amanda Warren in this role. And Jimmy Smits is always great. Olivia Luccardi and Ruben Santiago are standouts as well. It's fast paced but also takes time with the characters. It has the usual 2 to 3 situations the officers are dealing with per episode. It's got a good vibe to it. I hope the writers stay true to the storylines and characters. I'm impressed so far. Give it a shot. Looking forward to episode 3. Go East New York!!!!!
