If you've ever worked in law enforcement or have someone in you life that does, this is a great show to watch. It's not a cops and robbers nor a shoot 'em up. It's a tale of the toil of police life. The stress, guilt, laughter, anger, elation, sadness all pulling on you in every direction, added to a family life, is on display here. After 32 years on the job I'd say this is one of the most realistic police dramas I've seen.
