Rosewood can be fun in spots, but more often is way over-cooked.
The show has a certain sunny Miami gloss, but that doesn’t blind us to the generally perfunctory script, the flat pacing and the useful but unremarkable dialog. Everyone involved really deserves better, including the audience.

My favorite show on TV! A well written crime show, without all the gore present in most murder porn! The characters are well developed, and I often laugh out loud. You would think that with all the mystery murder crime shows out there that everything would be old or done before, but this show is fresh and fun! So glad they are doing a second season!

Rosewood isn't awful. But both Chestnut and the viewers deserve much better.
The show has a strong, likable cast--Mr. Chestnut, in particular, seems to be having fun--but when cliches pile up faster than clues, it’s time to change the channel.
A derivative procedural with uninteresting, annoying characters and boring plots, it has little to recommend, save for its glorious shots of Miami nightlife.
There’s hardly a crack in his veneer or any ironic punch line to his act--we’re just meant to accept him as the coolest man in Miami. As such, he’s just another dull, pretty detective who solves his cases too quickly.
Chicana PD and a black charming professional are so alive together it shows how it can be without extra tension existing in many communities. In this aspect, the show is not so much about crimes as about possibilities of relationship for me.
Rizzoli and Isles was interesting not so much for crimes solved but for the camaraderie, mutual understanding and development of friendships. If Rosewood will be moving in that direction - it would be ok with me.

While I am not a fan of the male/female cop show formats that have enidated television these days I found myself watching "Rosewood" mostly because of the series star Morris Chestnut. His character of Doctor Rosewood is unique in some aspects compared to counterparts on similar programs. Having said that my criticism of the show is that after a few episodes "Rosewood" started falling into the same old 'will they or won't they' category when it comes to relationship between Rosewood and Detective Villa. As for Detective Villa's character, she went from being a tough as nail cop who is dealing with personal loss to how many tighter tank-tops and blue jeans can she fit into each episode. This show did have the potential of being something different but fell into the same format rut as other cop/partner shows. It is no wonder "Rosewood" was cancelled after two seasons. The writers ran out of ideas.

This wasn't the worst new show I've seen so far this fall, but it's hardly the best. There was a smugness about the characters that didn't work well for me. And the rest of the plot felt a bit like a by-the-numbers experience. Still, there are worse shows on FOX this fall.
