Black deputy Inspector Regina Haywood (Amanda Warren) gets promoted to be the new leader of NYPD's 74th precinct in East New York, Brooklyn. She has some new ideas and intends to implement them despite resistance from the old guard. Assistant Chief John Suarez (Jimmy Smits) is her protective superior. Captain Stan Yenko (Richard Kind) becomes her executive officer. Officer Marvin Sandeford is the skeptical veteran as he mentors new recruit Officer Andre Bentley. Brandy Quinlan is the young officer eager to change the system. Detectives Tommy Killian and Crystal Morales are detective partners.
This is a solid police drama. It has a reliable veteran like Jimmy Smits. The cast looks great. I would dial back some of the progressive politics early on and add more of the political corruption. It's a really good show. In years past, it would be given time to build an audience, but that's not the world today. This show has no connections to other shows and no cross promotion possibilities. CBS cancels this after one season.
