Don't they have Continuity people for these projects?
The timeline was totally screwed up. They never established how long it was after the end of the series, which in actual time was 20 years. They had Nash and Joe being partners 25 years, which they were during the run of series. They ignored that Nash was a Captain and Joe was a Lieutenant at end of series, so why is he taking orders from another Captain? If Nash was demoted he would've walked. Nash knew the Captain in the movie 30 years, yet that was from when she and Cassidy were in Police Academy together, which would've been long before the series. Towards end Joe is talking about going on a date. Did Inger pass, or were her and Joe divorced? Also didn't care for gratuitous destruction of the 'Cuda. Would expect it not to have lasted 50 years. When it was a car with daily wear and tear
For the few positives, they did mention what Cassidy was up to, being in Army Intelligence. Nash's flirtation with the Police Dept. Shrink ( Would be curious to know if Nash now had more ex-wives than NCIS's Jethro Gibbs?). Butting heads with Steven Colton, the young stick up his ass know it all.
What they should have done was have Nash and Joe retired, still running the Bridges and Dominguez Detective Agency and being Consultants to the SFPD. Looks like Nash won't return as a series again, as was hoped for. Maybe someone will reboot Spenser For Hire and get it right.
