Tommy

I hadn't started watching till I had a little extra time to catch up on the DVR today. My expectations were low, since people were complaining about another radical lefty preachy type show with emphasis on a gay female "powerful woman" boss. Well, okay, she's all of that, but she's also got a Tom Selleck streak. She sticks up for her cops, bashes on reporters, has a touch of humor. Plus it's Edie Falco! I wish more people would give this one a chance.

I love seeing a powerful woman in a position that has historically been male dominated in the real world. Gives a glimpse into how women respond to leadership. Confident/powerful but still humble, strong/fierce without losing compassion, brilliant/passionate yet open to hearing/encouraging ideas and views brought forth by others. I'm looking forward to seeing how the character of Tommy evolves!

The pilot was good enough to get me to tune in, again. Love Edie Falco. As previously mentioned, she has good instincts in choosing roles.

I have never watched Edie Falco shows but I do like the California spin opposite of Blue Bloods. The casting looks good and not full of blood, guts and gore of other shows.

I thought it might be another political smash and grab at first but it did not turn into a conservative comedy like other CBS shows.

I did have to do a rewind when it appeared Martin Milner from Adam-12 was escorting Arturo out of his house.

Had really low expectations with the ridiculously low rating of 4.8*@146v (think I also saw it at 1.2* earlier). What's up with the hate on shows/movies with female leads, who may or may not be gay?? Batwoman, Captain Marvel (on RT), etc. Anyway, I'm looking forward to episode 2 and the rest of season 1.
