It's cancelled?
How do I just find this show, binge it all weekend, and already it's cancelled? I wish Netflix would have billed this better. If you love Psych or Republic of Doyle, will enjoy this show.
A Netflix Series That Deserved Renewal
The excellent comedic drama created by Andy Breckman ran as a Netflix series and sadly faced cancellation after the first season. Netflix made a mistake not renewing the series in my opinion (it is one of the most well written and well acted productions on television). Stars Josh Groban and Tony Danza and all their co-stars really developed interesting characters, and the plots involved creative twists. Unfortunately, the series ended after only 10 episodes, so viewers may wonder about the outcome of a long term mystery contained within the series. The plots did not depend upon the mindless violence which pervades so much of network and streamed television. The series carried strong similarities with Mr. Breckman's Monk series, particularly in terms of the strong character development and the incisive scrpting. This show likely appeals to a broad demographic range (including many audience members who can recall television before comic books). Viewers lost the chance to follow this series when Netflix cancelled it after only about a month and a half without offering much of an opportunity for the show to develop a large Netflix audience. The first 10 episodes holds excellent binge watching potential. Catch re-runs on Netflix while you can!
Greg Kinnear
A fun, PG cop show my teens and I enjoy together! We all find something to laugh at and cringe with at the awkward social dynamics. A great break from the flashes of blood and gore, and the drawn out violent crime scenes.
Listening to Burl, in episode 6, make an off-the-wall comment about Greg Kinnear has become a family joke/prank and we all listen for the name in each remaining episode.
Fun & Entertaining
More of a comedy, very much like Monk. If you are a fan of Monk, you'll more than likely appreciate The Good Cop. Sometimes you just want to relax and enjoy a simple who done it and likeable characters. Very old school, love that there's no social messages or preachy political views. Love the Tony Danza and Josh Grodan duo. For a change, I'm thanking Netflix.
Thank you Netflix for this funny show!
Love this show. Yes it's predictable. ALL procedural crime shows are predictable. Only so many characters in an episode! It's the telling of a story that makes it stand out from the rest. It is also amazing acting to bring great writing to life. This cast delivers! Thank you for this show. Finally something funny and entertaining on Netflix
