Absolutely terrible

Went in wanting to like it as I know the main character from "Bonus Family": and liked him there. I should say I couldn't make it through one full episode. For one thing, in this day and age any director making the decision to use Shaky-Cam ought to be ignored forever. Seriously, shaky cam? It isn't a documentary, and if it were documentary hand held cameras don't shake around as much as this. It is a totally bogus decision that literally ruins the experience.

On top of that the script had so many plot holes it was non existent. I don't think it's a spoiler to say any policeman in any police dept, involved or that was at a shooting, will get their gun checked against the deceased. Not here though. Nothing makes sense in this, it is not ground breaking, the background music, the style is not new or innovative, and again, shaky cam. Used as an attempt to make it more gritty, and fails miserably. I gave up.
