E Canuck Commencing season 4 via Crave TV, I've really been enjoying this series. I think the casting is superlative, acting excellent and most of the writing is very credible, I'm less inclined to nit-pick this series than many I've watched, especially Canadian ones. I've a Quebecois friend who tells me the French series on which this is based was much stronger. If true, the Francophone original must have been really special. I'm going to be watching for a change in tone in this final season with its switch to CTV from Bravo. Already, in the first episode I think I might be seeing a bit of a change in tone, perhaps less credible action on the part of at least one of the characters, and one improbable action event. That might reflect my prejudices about these networks, though. I miss Bravo network which we used to get before the cable service for our building was changed to a different provider. Another series that took a distinct nosedive switching to another network from its Bravo originator is Inspector Murdoch. Under CBC's watch the whole thing seemed to change emphasis to splashy production values and writing stereotypes. The main character Murdoch is awfully prettified.

Mark Norville At first I really did not like this show, and then I realised that it is Canadian, and then I hated it even more.This a poor man's wannabe American cop show, however it does become better mid season. I say better, more tolerable is more of an apt description. I am on episode 8, season 01, and it reminds me of an old B movie. You either like them, or hate them.I honestly cannot see why this show is rating so high, maybe canucks coming here, but for me, it just does not grip me, the way that American cop shows do.

Cameron Sabo I heard this show was supposed to be the Canadian version of Southland and gave it a try. That could not be further from the truth. This is nothing more than a ridiculously cheesy, unrealistic and overall terrible police show along the likes of such tripe as Rookie Blue. In the first episode, for example, an officer shoots a suspect and is back at work the next day. Time off for an investigation? Of course not. Even more infuriating is when the viewers later learn that the officer actually kept his weapon after the shooting and cleaned it. This character is supposed to be a veteran officer with years as a police officer, yet he doesn't think he has to turn in his weapon after an officer-involved shooting? Come on. Even Flashpoint got that part right, wherein an officer who is involved in a shooting has their weapon and uniform taken for the investigation. I only watched the first episode due to how ridiculous this show is. If you like unrealistic shows that portray policing absolutely incorrectly, you'll love this show. If, on the other hand, you prefer your police drama's to accurately reflect the job, don't waste your time with this one.

Lesley Reade I will admit that I have met a few of the actors that are in this show so at first I was afraid to watch it in case it was bad and I didn't like it. But I was so pleasantly surprised. It surpassed all my expectations! It is beautifully shot. The acting, from everyone, is great. Some performances are better than others but I feel like everyone is pulling their weight and I actually want to know what happens to them. One of the characters is so mean I really hate him and only a strong actor can make you feel that way. It is gritty and dirty and cops are portrayed in all different lights. We can see how people can overreact cause they don't have the full story and we also see how the cops can power trip and act badly. Overall this is a show that is worth your time and I will be watching it season after season!!
