It comes down to what is your cup o' tea.
What's your taste, of course.
The writing is interesting, informative, pushing social boundaries laced with positive options, while facing politics and heavy hits of life.
This is not a skimmer.
Watching straight through - it's fascinating.
Usually I can see where storylines are going after my decades of TV / film watching, but these stories so far take little twists and turns becoming unpredictable ..
It is omniscient.
Written decisions by the lead, a lesbian Chief of Police in Los Angeles (that's in the trailer) are refreshing to watch, making a study on how things have been handled and yet could be handled in the force, family life, the media.. At the same time you get tastes into the lives and pov's of others.
Acting is right on par.
Everyone has an excellent embodiment of the depth and quirkiness of his or her character for the first season, which usually takes a while to develop. It has already become really fun for me to watch them play off each other.. and I'm left so far anticipating how they'll all handle their next social, personal on the grid and off the grid situations Life will throw at them.
