I just read the other reviewer and I feel like I don't need to repeat their words, but for clarity, I will repeat some of it.I agree with everything that was said. The lead character, Peter Winchester, is so self-righteous that I am annoyed every episode. Every time his boss makes a decision, he always goes and does the opposite. He listens to no one.The female lawyer annoys me no end. She also is self-righteous, rude, and does not even listen to Winchester who is her boss.I don't like the female detective either - Nager. The only likable person is Jon Seda. Another thing with this show, as the other reviewer said. It was really flawed. Having watched so many other law shows, Law & Order etc, you kind of know how the law should work in some cases. In Chicago Justice, to me they often got it wrong and had me asking "what happened there - what kind of decision was that?" I disagreed with a lot of their final decisions. I wondered if the writers had proper law consultants.I was expecting this to be cancelled and it seems I was right. I won't miss it and it's vacancy will create space for me to watch something else or take a break.Sorry. I really wanted to like it as I love law shows, but I couldn't with this one.

Dick Wolf expands his Chicago universe. Mark Jefferies (Carl Weathers) is the State's Attorney. Peter Stone (Philip Winchester) and Anna Valdez (Monica Barbaro) are ASA's. Antonio Dawson (Jon Seda) and Laura Nagel (Joelle Carter) are investigators for the office.Wolf ties this in with his other Chicago shows but it's the least compelling of them. This is basically Law & Order redux. There is even a direct connection to the original show. If he's going to do that, he should have brought back one of the old actors to do a cameo. I'm not sure returning to the old standard adds anything compelling. It's the same old formula with even more impossibly-beautiful people and none of them are good rooting interest. I'm surprised that NBC canceled it but sometimes an overgrown plant needs to be trimmed.

The character played by Carl Weathers almost completely ruins this show. Most of the other characters aren't any better. I had such high hopes for this show, since all the other Chicago series are fantastic, sad to see that Jon Seda moved to this Show. He deserves better than what they are bringing to this show so far.

Why does this show even exist? So I'm to believe that court investigators act as detectives hunting down suspects? I was to believe this would be a court show, not a pseudo Chicago pd series. This show wants to be a full package show, where the cast of Chicago pd does not exist to play the role of arresting suspects.
