NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!
Rijndri Load of rubbish!!
Steineded How sad is this?
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
keefus-1 When I first sat down to watch this show I was expecting another formulaic, "fast and loose with the rules but always just on the right side of the line" cop show. I must admit that I was pleasantly surprised.Dark Blue is indeed refreshingly dark; the characters are predictably tortured souls with an interesting mix of personalities and histories that add to the depth of the plot lines, they are all superbly written and acted to the degree that sometimes the plot becomes something of a happenstance as we follow the personal journeys of the protagonists.the plots themselves have all been seen before in numerous guises, but Dark Blue puts a new and slightly twisted slant on them that can fool you into thinking that you have never seen them before, but it is worth remembering that the case is not really the important thing here; it is what the case does to the characters that defines the show.All in all, I would recommend this show to anyone who wants to watch a new and gritty take on a genre that has not yet been pushed to these limits.
kimberly-turner This show had promise, but it gets worse each time I watch it. The male actors are fine, but the actress has been badly miscast. Her acting is alright, but she's in the wrong roll. The show is trying too hard to be serious and dark with dark difficult characters. They pour on the posturing and hostility too strong and too often. With the third episode they started shoving sexual tension and now we have a cop soap-opera. After the third episode I debated watching the next episode, but started it and stopped it within a few minutes. I won't be watching again. It's too bad as I wanted to like this show, but the writing is so poor it's just not worth the effort to suffer through it.
smallrage1 How can they show this trash on TV? If this show lasts more than 10 episodes I'll have a heart attack. This has got to be one of the worst shows on TV right now, no doubt it. The only reason I gave it a 2 and not a 1 was because of the pilot was poor and not very bad like the rest of the episodes, after you have watched the pilot you basically seen all 7 episodes. The only the difference is gangsters and how much more corrupt cops they really are nothing else sets these episodes apart.The acting is not only horrible they just don't fit the parts which makes it so unbelievable and phony, they're basically corrupt cops who are free to do what ever they feel like doing with no fear of reprisals, as if. Sure some Cops are corrupt but not to this extent Someone mentioned Jeffrey Donovan/Michael Westen as being the wrong actor for his role. I sorry but he plays his part very well and the support cast are perfectly balanced and have great chemistry. This series the actors have zero and I mean zero chemistry how dare someone compare Burn Notice with this trash. Yet great shows like Point Pleasant, Carnivàle for example get axed in the middle of the series without any explanation. I know the didn't play on TNT I'm just making a point that great shows get canceled to make room for trash shows like Dark Blue.The best thing they could do for us viewers is to have mercy on us and pull the plug on this show today if TNT are to compete with the Big networks they better cancel this before the new fall season starts. I'm sorry if I have offended people with my comments but sometimes the truth hurts, just like this show hurts me to watch it. I gave it a chance to develop but nothing has happened since the pilot even after 6 episodes nothing at all in the way of character building.The only reason why someone would like this show is because they too believe Police are that corruptible, I can see no other reason why someone would like this show. Your much better served watching real good science fiction like Eureka, then watching this cheap version of fiction like dark blue. Bruckheimer does make good shows clearly this is his worst one to date
Blacquereighn First off, I'd like to know how you guys were able to swipe the name I had registered for the last eight years! :) Secondly,I'd like to say congrats to your writers and actors for putting together a nice piece of work. Dark Blue clearly defines the fine line between what an 'undercover' and a 'plainclothes'cop. Most of your viewers will catch on if they haven't already. Although you've taken police genre in a new direction, I've seen several flaws in some of the action scenes. I know this because I'm an ex-NYPD undercover cop. I wonder how much more gritty your show would be if you infused outside help from someone who's actually been a real 'undercover'. Click here: Welcome to Derek Wright AssociatesGreat start!
