This is one of the best TV cop shows I've ever seen. I find it difficult to believe that is only lasted one season, but when I compare it to series that have lasted I'm afraid I know the reasons: Not enough sex between characters, not enough bad behavior on the part of the police (drug use, infidelity, etc.) and not enough intradepartmental politics, corruption and back-stabbing. Good acting, great actors, excellent and innovative direction and the unique character study provided by Michael Imperioli were just not enough to sustain the interest of modern audiences. I guess people today don't enjoy watching good men and women doing a good job. They want bad behavior and titillation. It was just too good to last.

I enjoy this show best of all the many crime shows I watch. It's difficult to understand why they have had a couple of very poor reviews, but as I read those reviews I can see that the reviewers seemed upset by the strength and confidence of our female investigators. Maybe they have some problems with strong women - who knows? I know that I watch each show from start to finish with interest and enjoyment. It's great to see that not only the lady investigators but the local police and DA's who are so interested in pursuing justice for the victims and family members. I'm glad they don't drag us through every detail of their investigations but go over the highlights in a rational and illuminating manner.
