In Justice

Most of 2020, I wondered if this show would return, given the political environment, particularly in regard to law enforcement. A lot of the reviews of this episode trash it for having a political tone, However I would have been surprised if the show did not address the situation at some point. You can't have a show about a middle-aged white male cop and ignore the systemic racism prevalent in today's society. All in all, as cheesy as it may have been, I think they handled the subject matter relatively well. I did not feel as though I was being force-fed some social justice agenda, and I appreciated that. Fillions Shows have always been light hearted and I do believe that is a large part of what makes them work. This show has proven to be no exceptions to that formula. I am glad that they got the subject addressed without sacrificing the integrity of the show. My biggest criticism is that the actress playing Sgt Lopez often looks like a bug-eyed cgi character. I'm assuming that making her character pregnant is the easiest way to gradually write her off the show... I would not recommend judging this entire series off of this one episode. If you did not care for this episode, give it another shot and I think you might be delightfully surprised.

I don't have an issue with the political part of this episode. However, if you have ever watched ANY TV, you will be able to predict every thing that happens in this episode. It's a combination of bad writing, stilted dialog, bad acting and if that's not enough, let's throw in stereotyping as well. The moments of "light and understanding" were so over the top, I wanted to vomit. The whole episode was ridiculous.

Ruined this show. Way too preachy. Just want the fun, unbelievable cop show back.

This show started out fresh and interesting. I have checked the writing, and the instant Alexi Hawley stopped writing which was this episode it starts going downhill. Turning into lame standard US television riddled with excessive social messages and lacking in character development and quality production. The writing on this episode is lacking and the next episodes are even worse. I would suggest this one and the next are still benefiting from wrapping up some older elements. Please come back Alexi. Don't let your creation here flushed. If this keeps up People won't keep watching. Nathan Fillion can only do so much to hold the fan base.

99.9 % of police officers are a service to their communities. See what happens when cities cut back on funding. Better still why not send in the social workers and warriors first? Why not let the departments weed out the very few bad ones? I'm tired of these shows on CBS airing "talking points". If I wanted "talking points", I'll turn on the network news and other media.
