ANyone watching it?

I was interested cuz I like the lead actor (michael Imperoli--sp?) from the Sopranos though I didn't like the Sopranos....

anyway I liked it pretty well...especially cuz of him....I'm gonna keep watching and see....

I'm from Detroit and have to say I'm not a fan. All I can do is hope they are using lots of Detroiters as extras given the 45% un- and under-employment rate in the city.

I only saw the first episode and, more than anything else, I was simply bored to tears.

But, you might be happy to know that Michael hired my massage therapist the whole time he was filming and she had nice things to say about him

OK Phantaja my heart skipped a beat when you said your cousin gets murdered soon and then I realized you meant as an extra!

That's good and that's really the only reason I hope this show succeeds- so people can have jobs.

I don't think I've ever thought, "Oh, good! Congratulations!" on hearing that someone was about to get murdered. That's the MDC boards: always something new!

Well, I'm from Detroit, and I enjoyed the show. Of course, I love most procedural-type shows, so I don't have very high standards. I also really enjoy seeing all of the local places and hearing familiar street names and such.

I'm enjoying it. I like Michael Imperioli and I think the character he's playing is weird in a make me wants to watch more kind of way.

The cop who just had the son is starting to irritate me. How can he help fight crime when he's always on the telephone?

OK, so I watched a few more episodes to try to give it a chance and I'm still not a fan but it might because I'm a former public defender so I'm just not a fan of cop shows. I do have to say that I do like Micheal's character, not sure why, but he's ok. Also, the Latina detective is hot
