That was an excellent one.

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Normally I don't really go for cop shows much as they tend to be fairly dry Procedurals that I think have little resemblance to real life. Michael Imperioli is notable in this representation of cop life in Detroit-which is probably the toughest town to be a cop in, in the entire USA. Dry wit makes this show work-and other producers of cop shows could take valuable lesson from the way they did these scripts. The cinematography is well done and keeps the show moving at a brisk pace. The shots are crisp and I think representational of what you would see doing such a job in a city like Detroit. The characters are believable and it isn't a 'whites only club' like Blue Bloods-which is dry as a paperweight by comparison. Too bad it only ran for only one season. My favorite aspect of the show was seeing all the different places in Detroit. It's not a city I know much about-thanks to the shows producers for the education.

You know that show you used to watch that was so absolutely amazing? Yeah. The one that got canceled because the Network couldn't recognize a success if their lives depended on it. DETROIT 1-8-7 had the realism of HOMICIDE (which lasted for SEVEN seasons and a movie), the quirky character allure of TWIN PEAKS (a cult hit, even after 25 years!) and a stellar cast (including Michael Imperioli of SOPRANOS fame)! There are so many reasons I was shocked to find out this series was canceled after only one season. This is why I hate Network TV. Why don't we pitch NETFLIX original programming, or HULU original programming to finance the return of this fantastic program? Seriously. I'm starting a petition.~AKO Spandella

When one looks for a good crime drama, they usually think CSI, Law and Order and such, but little are aware of what I, and many others, consider the best cop drama on TV, Detroit 1-8-7. With an all-star cast featuring James McDaniel of "NYPD Blue" fame and Michael Imperioli of "The Sopranos", Detroit 1-8-7 has the best cast of any cop show on TV. Even the amateurs such as Shaun Majumder and Jon Michael Hill bring strong performances. Aisha Hinds as well. The characters are believable and 3D. The setting adds to the realism. Detroit 1-8-7 is perhaps the grittiest show on TV. The show started off well and only got better as the show went on. I hope this show comes back for a second season because it would be a shame if it got canceled.

This show is very good, but it does not the credit it deserves. I continue to watch it and to try to get other people to watch it also. I was so glad to see "Season Finale" during the promo for the last episode, and hope it means it will return next year. Michael Imperilo is fantastic as Detective Fitz and each episode he gets better. His real life son starred in the last episode. He looks just like his dad , which made it even more real. Please ask your friends to look for reruns or go into the network for episodes and watch them. I sent peanuts to CBS to keep Jericho on, but it still went off. That doesn't say much about my taste. I just liked the show.
