Good Cop

I love short series that get to the point quickly. This one was well done, however I kind of disliked the main character even though we were meant to love him. Recommend the show if you like other British cop shows!

It has no end. The last episode never aired, so you never get an ending. First 4 episodes r good but without an ending whats the point.

Why would a channel re-show a show with no ending and not show the ending 10 years later?

I almost turned it off so hard the first few episodes.. then I remembered how I was treated as a new female within the US military. Just like this, lots worse, and imagine what they said behind my back.. like the officers do within the show? Probably lots worse. And this is why I will only watch British police procedurals. They're feminist in a non overt way. Here it's beautifully and horrifically done. Women are strong enough to be soldiers and police officers and do blue collar work. But we must fear men because they're the ones doing the majority of crime. We need strong men like the male lead in this to just have our backs. Anyway.. Really wish it had a clean closing.

We watched this show with our Britbox subscription. The first two parts were each 100 minutes. Britbox wanted to charge a fee to watch the 3rd and 4th episodes (each only 50 minutes), but the descriptions matched things we'd already seen. If you are a Britbox subscriber, don't get caught up in this show because you will be seriously let down by plot threads that are unresolved.

I gave this a 7 based on what we saw, but I almost gave it a 2 based on the frustration of an unfinished story. The trivia says that the BBC pulled the plug on the last installment...really? It would have had to be "in the can" since they were running on successive weeks. So what happened to the conclusion? I guess we'll never know.

Seriously amazing series with some of the UK's finest actors. Warren Brown and Stephen Graham are mesmerising in it, with a very early promising cameo from Jodie Comer too. Would have been more critically acclaimed if it had been allowed to finish and maybe a 2nd series commissioned. But due to real life events at the time, they sadly pulled the plug on showing the last episode, leaving us the viewers hanging and deeply disappointed. Surely now 10 years on this could be repeated or available to watch including the final episode at least? Would've been a 10* rating had I been able to finish watching the whole series.
