Deputy

1st off, I'm a MAGA, right wing, Ditto head, retired peace officer. I'm enjoying this show. Yes, there are many left leaning scenes in the show, but the over all stories are good, for what it is. It's a cop show made by Hollywood. The "Deputy " is like a lot of upper brass I have worked with and trained over my 25 years in law enforcement. I watched officers do the job right beside me, then they promote and they sell their souls. They hang up their sam Browne, their baton, boots and flashlight, most with human tissue still in the cracks. Then as Lieutenants, Captains and higher they will burn you for the things they did when they were beat cops. That said. This show got many things right. Upper brass trying to burn the little guy, building their upper echelon as they want it. Trying to remove anyone they don't want in their command. Dead on. Liberals exist, this is a fact. They are among us. In my circle of friends and family. Luckily we all get along. The fact that the Sheriff goes out on busts, and gets into shootouts, Hollywood bs. But the show is gritty and shows some of the ugly sides of law enforcement .is it real?, no. Can a Conservative enjoy it?, this one does.

I've read the first line of the previous reviews. I don't feel that Deputy does have a political tone but in "real life" those usually the Sheriff who is an elected official will have to deal with so many political issues. Those political issues that the writers bring forth are making those show more believable. He goes out into the "trenches" and fights crime, has a family who loves and needs him, and his position is being compromised by a co-worker is was to be Sheriff. Too many people see everything as "political" instead of seeing the "big picture".

I find this show pretty even keeled so I don't get the comments on it being liberal. Guess I don't know what that means anymore since some people seem to like throwing that word as an insult. This has the beginnings of a great show that shows compassion for immigrants as well as toughness on gangs. Believe me this is no where in the category of PC new shows like 911- lone star. What, the powers that be cannot stand any opinion that does not totally agree with their own?

I live in Australia, so all the US Laws I cannot/do not follow. I am oblivious about your Police Procedure, so loved this first episode. Stephen Dorff was brilliant and funny & his Personal Assistant is funny as all get out. Loved the action and the horse riding. The fact that I am crazy about this genre of TV/Movies helps the rating I gave it, considerably. Been waiting for something decent to watch along this line, since Yellowstone finished it's second season.

I'm not sure why so many of the ratings were so bad. people you should also be looking at acting acting, costumes, locations and yes the dialogue.

First of all, the writing was bad. This is the most important factor and it was bad. I don't need to go until detail. Watch a few episodes if you don't believe me.

Then we have the acting, which wasn't bad at all. Especially if we compare it to most of the shows on TV.

Locations, costumes etc were fine.

I rated it much higher than a one.
