The only reason I don't rate this 10 is because it is excruciating to watch, being so painfully realistic. It doesn't follow the traditional cop shows where one or more cases are followed from start to finish. It instead tells the story of the persons in the uniforms, humanizing them, in their daily life as regular "street" police officers. They don't get to crack the big cases, instead they only see misery and darkness.
Excellent acting in believable characters, in combination with the realistic script, makes this one of the best shows in the genre. But don't expect snappy comments, shootouts or high speed car chases. It's a drama, not an action or thriller.
If nothing else, watch it to get a better understanding of what police officers have to deal with on a daily basis.
