SarahMay 13, 20099Great new show--lots of promise. Excellent cast, good writing, funny in a dry humor sort of way, unique take on cop shows. Look forward to watching it every week!

GwennethStewardJun 6, 20099I like to give all new shows a look see...I was hooked by The Unusuals from the first episode. Imaginative, humourous, entertaining with a dash of pathos...i.e., wearing a bullet proof vest to bed !! Not being awash in blood and human innards, was a relief in itself. Apart from Amber Tamblyn, whom I last saw chatting it up with God...the casting is superb. A big "thumbs up"...

MattMadridMay 20, 200910Most likeable and engaging characters of any cop show since NYPD Blue. Better than Southland.

kristaMay 5, 200910I love this show! It has all the escapism that I crave. Who wants all that reality crap that is so prevalent right now. I swear if I see one more nanny, wife swap, or similar crap instead of some good ole make believe, I will just turn it off. We all want entertainment, not reality.

KevinJMay 8, 20099It took some effort to get into this series, because it requires some time to develop the characters - which in turn makes it rewarding to make the effort to watch the first three episodes... Anyone with a glimmer of sense would have nade a 2 hour pilot to help the process because there will be those who watch episode one and don't bother watching anymore.

AllieADec 23, 200910My family and I loved this show!!! We're so disappointed that it was cancelled!!! We thought Amber Tamblyn was GREAT!! The show had just the right amount of humor and was edgy also. Even our kids (who are in their twenties) like it.

StuartMApr 23, 20099Definitely worth a look. The cast- esp. Tamblyn, Goldberg, and Perrineau- deliver and engage the viewer. Hope ABC gives it a chance to grow on the audience.

StephenRApr 26, 200910First new show I have liked in years. Finally a cop show that doesn't beat the CSI/CIS theme to death. Great cast too.

DuaneLApr 9, 200910I thought this show was brilliant. I was hooked the first few minutes. Since the promo commercials began airing, it looked like a show I would enjoy. It has a group of cops all with their different quirks and secrets. Although its hard not to laugh at the humor, you have this intense underlying story about a house full of potentialy corrupt cops.

DavidKMay 14, 200910This is the new NYPD Blue. I didn't realize how much I missed Blue until I began watching this. Great characters, just quirky enough with being cloying. Nice pacing, smart writing.

TaunyaBAug 16, 200910I was hooked from the first episode. Quirky, twisty, funny, sometimes thought provoking, but mostly entertaining. When they canceled it before even half way through the season, i felt seriously robbed !! My husband didn't like it at all. Go figure.

BillyMDec 15, 200910ABC what are you thinking? there are other shows that reallly suck, and this was a good one! you're losing me

The oddball overload bugs at first, but the incredibly likable cast makes The Unusuals unusually promising.
-
That's a lot of eccentricity, but creator/writer Noah Hawley meshes humor and pathos with deft plotting and dialogue.
-
80Look a little closer, though, and what you'll find is a truly strange cop dramedy with lots of sharp dialogue, jocular banter and offbeat scenarios.
