Bronx SIU

I was expecting a show similar to the original New York undercover and though this show has similarities it is far from it. I really like this show though. I hope that it grows and continues to have more seasons. The characters have great stories of their own which brings extra intrigue into each episodes case. I believe we have been so spoiled with high budget shows that when lower budget shows are on we bash them. This show does have a lower budget and it is obvious but the acting is great and overall the show is becoming one of my favorites. The only down fall is the show is somewhat dry and slow but if you can get past that you will definitely like it.

It's no Law & Order (or others similar) but it's watchable, just!

Low budget definitely, so it's expected that it wouldn't be great.

3 or 4 actors carried this. Hidekun Hah, Brian White, Leticia Jimenez & Keeland Ellis.

With a bigger budget, this could have been great, but the story was all over the place, especially in season one. Camera work was dreadful too. It had a lot missing from the plot, it's like full episodes were missing, and they tried going back & forth in time, to try fill gaps, but often failed.

Shame.

I get what they tried to do here, but I'm going straight down the middle with this.

The effort that went in to this series was amazing, the actors as well as well as producers are phenomenal.

Oh my, is this all it takes to get a paycheck in American Television, if so, I am on the first flight out to Hollywood, or rather the Bronx!

Truly awful B movie style acting, I don't know what they are doing with the audio, but it is awful throughout, the only saving grace is visually it is shot quite well, if you can forgive the jerky camera movements and the weird repetitive scenes, as if it is rewinding then playing again over the course of a few seconds...Bizarre!

I didn't really know the actors/tresses but there was no stand out performance and it was all really poorly done. One scene were the female lead cop is in a bar, holding a whisky shot and just looks really weird, not sure if the idea was to suggest she was struggling to cast her demons aside and drink it, or if it was supposed to suggest she was so drunk she couldn't drink it, I just wish I looked that sober when drunk! Then the following scene is so cringe.

I have never seen such glamorous drug addled prostitutes with such perfect teeth and total lack of track marks or even a blemish of dirt either, and what punter sits in a car after a mouth muzzle and just acts like a knife to his throat is like getting a drive through burger, even stating he will 'see you tomorrow!' after?

I have no idea who watches stuff like this and thinks, yeah that is akin to law and order SVU or Criminal Minds, or any similar show, I do know it seems to be a sad state of American TV these days, as its probably no worse than the likes of 911 or any other similar show released in the last year.

Maybe the joke is on me and this was just a jokey style script for some telethon event, but even then, just can it and move on!

Poorly written, poorly directed, poorly acted, poorly shot.

Looks extremely low-budget. I've seen student films that look like masterpieces compared to this.

Brian White has done much better work in other productions. He's the best actor in this cast, but his performance can't elevate him from this complete train wreck of a TV show.
