VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Donald Seymour 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.
Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Judy Rachel I have it from an inside source the reason the series was canceled was because Eisner and Katzenberg were having a pissing contest. Katzenberg at the time was suing Eisner (Disney) for money he felt he was owed while working at Disney. The series was being reported as picked up in all the tabloids. On the weekend that the season line-up was to be announced, in NYC, Eisner dropped 'High Incident' from the list at the very last minute, without any warning, so nobody could do anything about it.I was told that Spielberg had said that if he'd known that this could possibly have happened he would have been in New York that weekend. A couple of years later when 'Schindler's List' was to premiere on network TV Spielberg pulled it from ABC and gave it to a different network. Spielberg got some measure of revenge. Katzenberg got his money. Eisner got to throw his power around. The people who really paid were the cast, the crew and the fans who loved the show.
sflevinson GREAT NEWS! Someone is selling DVDs of the entire series on sell.com ($55 plus shipping) and I bought the series. She obviously spent a lot of time on them, since the discs are really well done. My husband & I had forgotten lots of details of various episodes and it's like seeing old friends again. It's hard to believe that 10+ years have elapsed since the show ended....We love(d) various other police shows such as Homicide and we're also devoted viewers of Law & Order and Law & Order: SVU, but *nothing* can compare to High Incident. We've remarked that not only was the acting superb (and very *natural*, which was rather amazing when considering that many of the actors were relative "unknowns" at that time), but also the *action*; it's like we're literally right there with the officers. There's not one fake moment in that series and every episode is terrific, with one exception; the foggy highway episode, which we thought really dragged. But all is forgiven when we consider the other episodes. :)
setphasers2kill I lost all faith in television since High Incident was dropped. I cant say enough good about it. From the first episode when Len's partner and best friend isgunned down ( I almost broke down when I saw that ) all the way to the "final" bank robbery scene. The bright side, if any, is that it might be making it to DVD soon, and yes, part 2 of the bank robbery was shot.By the way, Officer Marsh gets my vote for "Badass Cop of All-Time"!!!
kreiner_n I could not believe that this one ended the way it did. This show was one of the only redeeming things about television while it was on. The actors meshed well and it blended nicely the humor and seriousness it was portraying. I was in disbelief when I heard it wouldn't be back after the second season. This is a show that should NOT have been taken off TV because it was good, and when shows like the Nanny can be on for like 8 seasons or whatever this one deserved more than it got. One of the best TV shows ever.
