Detroit 1-8-7

Yes, there are an overabundance of crime shows on Television.

Yes, I'm sure there is some skepticism as to whether the loyal fans of this show are truly commenting on show quality or just looking for some local publicity...

But this show is great. Really.

The acting is superb, the story lines are endearing, interesting, and unique, and they mix a good deal of intelligent comedy with drama. The character development is fantastic- as intricate as an indie movie. And the location provides a refreshing diversion from the typical crime show locales into something more gritty and real.

I watched this show with someone who was pretty resistant to "another cop show" and he now watches regularly... calling it "the best crime show I've seen in a long time"
