NYC 22

I really enjoy watching this show. I don't really get into "network" shows, I prefer FX, Showtime, AMC, and HBO much more than the network channels. This is a decent show in my Sunday night lineup as there's nothing really going on right now (Boardwalk Empire, Dexter, Walking Dead, etc) Happy to see Terry Kinney on a show. It's decent, nothing groundbreaking yet, but very enjoyable. Even happier that it's a show about the NYPD. The acting is decent. Adam Goldberg is fun to watch. Most shows are slow to find their footing in the first season. The music is pretty good for the show.... Theme song is off the hook. Old school Jay-Z song, "Heart of the City." All in all, it's entertaining and does the job of filling in while my other shows are on break.

For years I have not seen on TV and a real good series about cops on the street. When I saw the pilot episode, I fell in love in the series. In this series there is no political correctness that has ruined many a series of police. The series follows a group of young officers who were suddenly thrown into the real world. Colleagues who do not like them, rough areas, each of the young police officers has a story that appears in the series. Although there are a couple of clichés, the series was really great refreshment on television.

Message for writers and producers: - Proceed as in the first episode. - Do not turn this into a series of quasi-drama for the housewives - I do not want to go deeper into the love stories of police officers - We want to see their lives and work on the street - Display their private lives just to have as much to do with their work in the police.

Good job, keep going!

I watched all the episodes and find this series very "cheap" in production. I did see a few cameo's by some legends but that obviously wasn't enough to keep this show afloat. Lt. Shea from the series "Rescue Me" has a role here as a hostage negotiator but his character is down played by Lee Lee's character in a scene. I believe the budget was too short, the characters besides Adam Goldberg are horrible actors. The whole basis of the show is a big question mark??? Its so fake... just so fake that you can't stand it. If this is what the studio's in NYC are producing I can see why the industry is faltering and moving elsewhere.

At first watch, NYC 22 is knockoff of ABC's Rookie Blue. Perhaps Blue set the bar too high for this type of crime/drama/police show. Instead of finding 22 complementary to Rookie Blue, I found it inferior and difficult to watch without making comparisons.

Both cop shows with rookie officers, the plot line of the first NYC 22 episode was interesting, but again, I kept seeing where they'd spun off of or would do something very similar in Rookie Blue. Maybe because the shows are on a different network, but it's going to be difficult to make these two shows work in tandem like the CSI's. Unless you just really love rookie cop shows, go with Rookie Blue and don't waste your time with NYC 22.

While 22's cast is more established ((total aside, watching Lazarus (Adam Goldburg, sp?), I kept thinking, that's Joey's weird roommate!)) overall, Rookie Blue has a less well known but more cohesive and enjoyable cast.

NYC 22 This is a brand new show, only have watched one episode yet, how can i write a review on it already you ask? its IMDb, I'm not a pro, get over it.

The show at first didn't interest me, the misses turned it on and i watched it. At first i was like "meh, its going to be a csi, criminal minds, ncis crap show again". Well, I was wrong in this assumption. Not only did I enjoy meeting the characters and getting some back story on them, I was also shocked to see some really good actors in it (Lazarus and Yoda for starters). Yoda who was Tim Mcmanus in OZ was a huge surprise for me, granted i feel his character is the same one he portrayed in OZ, i am glad to see him again, great actor.

Anyways, the show is not a regular looking cop show where something bad happens and then when there's 10 minutes left we magical catch the bad guy, at least it doesn't appear to be that way, who knows what next week will bring, however, I will be there to find out.
