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. Read full review

Rosewood tries so badly to create the next prime-time super couple, but the duo at the heart of this awkward crime procedural are less together than they are apart. Read full review

Rosewood can be fun in spots, but more often is way over-cooked. Read full review

Dr. Beaumont Rosewood [is] a grating piece of work. Read full review

Rosewood is a snooze and a half. The dialogue is awful, the series largely humorless, and every move that happens in the pilot is something you've seen done better elsewhere. Read full review

Mark Peikert

Sep 23, 2015

At its worst, Rosewood plays like the kind of ridiculous, over-the-top drama with which a sitcom character becomes obsessed. At its best, it offers its audience the chance to feel smarter than its characters. Read full review

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. Read full review

Love this show! I don't care what others say I find it entertaining and the crimes riveting, they're not as obvious as other crime dramas in the whodunit stakes. Refreshing!

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 thisMy 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.

When I watched the 1st couple of episodes my reaction was eh. However, as I continued to watch I realized the show is not meant to be gritty or overly intense.

However, as I continued to watch I realized the show is not meant to be gritty or overly intense. Its a cross between Moonlighting, House, and Bones. I also like it for reasons that may make others uncomfortable ... that being, it places black characters outside of the Rapper/Drug Dealer/Athlete box that has become commonplace in movies and television. Consequently, I enjoy watching an upbeat positive show with a talented and integrated cast that recognizes a black man (or anyone else for that matter) can be as smart as Sherlock Holmes :-)… Expand

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.

Freelance medical examiner. Huh? Who has to force his way into police investigations. Say what? The banter is ludicrous. Lots of Sexy bodies. Yawn! I gave it 2 tries not going to give it a third.

Lasted 5 minutes. Our hero sees a body that's fallen from a building and without missing a beat tells us why he did it. He's smarter than Sherlock, and he's Black too! He rattles off medical terminology to make your head spin.

I'm not very picky, but darn this is bad. It's visually nice: Miami, the actors/actresses, the shooting is OK... and that's it. The acting is bad, the plot is ridiculous, the dialog is horrendous at times.
Unless you're very much into eye candy, there's 10+ better cops shows to spend time on.
