Critic Reviews

Robert Bianco

Season 1 Review: What will remain is the terrific, admirably diverse cast; the tough-but-uncynical attitude; and, perhaps best of all, the out-of-the-TV-norm location. The show isn't just set in Detroit; it's shot there, which gives it an authenticity and a palpable sense of place. Read full review

Zap2it (Inside the Box) Rick Porter

Season 1 Review: The location shooting and some very strong performances lift it above standard cop-show fare. Read full review

Verne Gay

Season 1 Review: Absent the overworked conceit of actors glancing at the camera to register annoyance or irony, this has turned into just another well-produced cop show with some excellent actors, like Imperioli or James McDaniel, who plays Det. Jesse Long and played Lt. Arthur Fancy on "NYPD Blue." Read full review

Dan Snierson

Season 1 Review: 1-8-7 doesn't pop with the gritty-city dynamism of, say, The Shield, leaving us to wonder whether this is another perfectly fine cop show going by on the assembly line. Read full review

David Hinckley

Season 1 Review: Despite a good veteran cast led by Michael Imperioli, Detroit 1-8-7 doesn't immediately set itself apart from a whole pack of competing cop shows. Read full review

Brian Lowry

Season 1 Review: It's not bad, but it initially looks relatively uninspired next to TV's best copshows, including current entries such as TNT's "Southland." Read full review

Lily Moayeri

Season 1 Review: The rest of Detroit 1-8-7's cast is fill-in-the-blanks police fodder. The only two characteristics that separate this show is one, it is filmed wholly in Detroit (who cares, a soundstage looks just as convincing) and two, the cameras are handheld (who cares, that shakiness can become very annoying).
