Here is the premise, and a very short recap of episode #1.
Fed up with the corruption of his superiors, Officer Frank Leo puts his money where is mouth is and steps up to become the head of the police union. He soon realizes that he may have gotten in over his head, as politics, intrigue and violence swirl around him.

This is a collaborative production between CTV, showing it is Canada now, and CBS. No word on when CBS is running it. Watch for it, it is an excellent show.

All episodes are available on the CTV website. I don't know if American ip addresses are blocked the way the US networks block Canadian addresses. If so, you can always hide your IP as I do if I want to watch Hulu or the American on-line content. I use Hot Spot Shield, you will need a different one to hide a US ip and substitute a Canadian one.

My new strategy for new shows is working out just fine. I had the first three episodes on my TiVo, and hadn't invested myself in the show by watching any of them, yet. Network cancels the show, and I free up the space on my TiVo to record shows that the other networks are airing by deleting these three unwatched episodes.

>> I've never even heard of this show. When is it on?

Well, for the two weeks that it aired in the US, it was on Sunday nights at 8pm. That you hadn't heard about it speaks volumes to just how well CBS did to publicize the show. No wonder the ratings were so low.

That is so stupid. They take a good show, and bury it in a time slot that has few of the target audience tuned in to television, then cancel it. What a bunch of bozos.
At least we still get to see it in Canada. Episode 4 was good.
