    So what is there to like about this show? The same thing there was to like about "The Sopranos" and "The Shield" - great writing, insanely good acting, deeply troubled and deeply layered characters and a plot that will keep you glued to your seat.

    Watching Braugher, who won an Emmy for Homicide, proves highly satisfying. But there's a big hitch: the maddening show around him.

    Bores by being relentlessly glum.

    I have tried to give this show time, but it is difficult. Andre Braugher is always GREAT! The problem is that we don't care about any other characters in the show! These are THIEFS, the only thing they have stole in three episode is diamonds, black book and a car!! Patients is a Virtue!… Expand

    Boring. Didn't explain several times how the police found certain people, not easy to follow. Nothing I would watch if it ever came back, amazed I did get thru 6 episodes.… Expand
