Cop or Not

Southland

1 review
7/10

Crippled with doubt and uncertainty

'Cop or Not' is notable for Sammy's return to the job, in an effort to get back on the horse and find his partner's killer. But he's rushing things and finds himself emotionally compromised.This is a dark period for Sammy; estranged from his wife, filling the paternal hole in his partner's house, and going off half-cocked on the street. Shawn Hatosy really plays up the brooding intensity.

Regina King also shines as Lydia is suddenly ostracized by the department when leaked photos of a crime scene wind up in tabloid hands. All she knows is how to be a cop and without warning, that future's in jeopardy. talk about being lost at sea.

A low-key episode relative to the rest of the season.

7/10
