NYC 22

This is the only show I watch on network TV, which isn't saying much. It has that Jack Webb sense about it in which they show a more polished department and officers, which are always so helpful and has the time to dedicate to the little stuff and solves every crime. These officers are not rookies, they're supercops, able to solve every crime in a single bound or should I say....60 minutes! It does give you a slight insight of the people real police officers have to deal with on a daily basis and the emotions they must feel, now only if they could develop sensorsmell for the TV. It'll have you fleeing your homes.

I was disappointed with one episode in which it looked like the series was heading for most of the officers to start having relations with their partners or other officers in the same precinct. This is why I only watched NYPD Blue for a couple of seasons, it was turning into a soap opera just as ER did and all these other drama's. Why the writers in Hollywood have to ruin these shows is beyond me but if they continue down that path with NYC 22, it'll last as long as Brooklyn South. And for us old fogies, can you lose the opening theme song?

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.

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.

I haven't watched a TV cop series since Hill Street Blues, but I made a point of watching the premier of NYC 22 when I saw that Richard Price was writer/producer. I think highly of his writing and have enjoyed his novels very much.

The series has a wide variety of rookie cops which keeps the pace of action interesting. I appreciate the lack of shaky cam and the fact that every street they show in the series hasn't been recently wet down. (Not a cloud in the sky and it just rained? A pet peeve of mine.)

Yes, there were a few scenes that were groaners. Plus some obvious paint by numbers plot points and character choices that must have looked good on paper, but you do what you have to to get a series on the air I guess.

There's some good humor in the writing and the show has a good balance between character and action which is why I went on to watch the second episode and will keep watching the remaining 10 and hope it gets renewed. So far I think it's definitely worth a look.

Though i liked the pilot, the last three episodes have been on a descending slope; oh, hasn't The Killing thought me anything? Well apparently not because i just dedicated a whole day catching up with NYC 22's last outings and i'm noticing more and more of the same: this is purely a "fantasy" police drama.

Now experience tells me that Fantasy and Drama don't normally go well together and there you have it, my review of NYC 22. too many weird, unrealistic things happening which completely befuddle you into thinking, "is this a serious show, i am watching, or complete rubbish?"

Rookie cops defusing bombs, radios that malfunction, specialist jobs being assigned randomly, such as investigations or detainee transport .. these are not beat-cop jobs, and have the writers really run out of ideas after four episodes? If you are going to center your show on rookies then you have to come up with rookies-related stories... other stuff won't do.

So, it's not really horrible, but we've already got CSI for those times when we want a completely unrealistic show and no thanks, we don't need one more, especially when it's this slow.

My vote, a forgettable 5/10
