Good Cop/Bad Cop

I don't think this show is trying to be anything more than it is. Easy watch, easy premise, and overall enjoyable. Fun detective stories with a brother and sister back and forth - I think in this climate we need stuff that helps us shut off.

I need some fun in my entertainment with a semi predictable storyline's but with a different structure of family. I really hope this show gets picked up and continues. Plus I like anything supporting the Australian filming economy and Australian actors. I think this could be great for numerous reasons. Good fun - give it a try. It's no Sherlock Holmes but it's genuine fun.

It's fun to see Leighton Meester back in a series again. She and Luke Cook are perfectly cast. Cozy mystery with plenty of humor and interesting supporting characters. Can't wait to see how the rest of the series plays out. The premise is an interesting one, estranged brother and sister reunited since the brother needs a job and is desperate to be a detective. The brother has no social skills but is a savvy detective and the sister is the can-do anything detective who works hard and will be her dad's successor as chief. The acting is strong and there's definitely a romance or two on the horizons for the siblings that will make for interesting storylines.

I just finished watching the first episode, and I have to say, it's off to a pretty intriguing start! Every time Henry appeared on screen, I couldn't help but think, "This is exactly how Sheldon Cooper would act if he grew up and became a cop." The character's quirky, analytical, and socially awkward demeanor really gives off those Young Sheldon vibes, but in a fresh and entertaining way. It's like seeing Sheldon trade in his theoretical physics for a badge and a patrol car, and honestly, it works surprisingly well. While the comparison is hard to ignore, it doesn't take away from the show's charm-it actually adds a layer of humor and relatability. I'm curious to see how Henry's unique personality will play out in the context of police work and how it will clash or mesh with the other characters. For now, I'm hooked and definitely planning to keep watching. The show has potential, and I'm excited to see where it goes from here.

A wholesome, wonderful little show that proves sometimes the simple pleasures are the most satisfying. The chemistry between Leighton Meester and Luke Cook is excellent-they convincingly embody siblings with such natural rapport that it spills over into their real-life press appearances, which actually inspired me to watch the show in the first place. Clancy Brown delivers a relatable performance as the patriarch, perfectly capturing that small-town nepotism mixed with benevolent corruption.

This isn't an instant hit, cult classic, or high art-but it doesn't need to be. It's just genuinely charming, endearing, and just funny enough to keep you coming back. Sometimes that's exactly what you need.

Good Cop Bad Cop grabbed me from the start. The Hickman family dynamics are genuinely entertaining and meaningful, making even the lighter moments feel worthwhile.

While realism takes a backseat (understandably, given the comedic nature), the humor lands perfectly-I haven't chuckled this much at a show in ages. A refreshing and unexpectedly delightful watch!

Elaborating on the character dynamics - their interactions are not only entertaining but also meaningful, adding depth to the story and making even the lighter, more comedic moments feel worthwhile. You genuinely care about these characters and their connection to each other.

So many shows & films these days rely on cheap gags or predictable setups, but Good Cop Bad Cop manages to be genuinely funny without resorting to these tired tropes or forcibly inserting it into scenes.

It was a refreshing and unexpectedly delightful watch, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a lighthearted and entertaining show.
