OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

Just what we needed...another really bad cop show.

I'm with Stew. Thought it was awful. They shoehorned in a shit ton of awkward "Hey, we're in Chicago!" dialogue.

I didn't think it was that bad. Dumb and really obvious, yeah, but whatever.

That guy's accent, though, whatever the fuck it was supposed to be, annoyed the everloving fuck out of me. I guess when an Aussie tries to do "Chicago polack" it comes out somewhere between "Brooklyn" and "South Boston."

This must be how Tonker feels about Dick Van Dyke.

I'll probably give it one to two more episodes and if it's not better, then fuck off

But seriously folks, this show was not good.  I'd rather watch The Cape.

I watched this last night. Maybe I would have liked it more if the lead detective wasn't an over the top douchebag Sox fan.

Well, I'm glad I was forced to watch it tonight. It wasn't any better, but I discovered I'm now two degrees of Kevin Bacon away from Flashdance.

It was a little better.  But I think I'm out.

I listened to the AV Club's podcast on the show.  Their reviewer had watched the pilot and the preceding two episodes in advance.  He posited that the show got demonstrably better by episode 3.
This is so bad, I'd root for the Orioles over this fucking team, but I can't. Because they're a fucking drug and you can't kick it and they'll never win anything and they'll always suck, but it'll always be sunny at Wrigley and there will be tits and ivy and an old scoreboard and fucking Chads.
