It's New Orleans, post Katrina. The city and its police force are scarred. Crime runs rampant. This looks like a job for a police procedural! Thank goodness there's Martin Boulet (Anthony Anderson), a cop so committed that he flies into a fury when NOLA residents try to sell their homes and move out. His old partner abandoned him during the flooding, but his new partner Cobb (Cole Hauser) might be worse: he's a former soldier who claims to be from Illinois but seems to know a bit too much about the Big Easy. Boulet breaks all the rules to catch the perpetrators of ridiculous crimes. What does it all mean? It means he gets results, you stupid chief.
| Aaron's take: | A promising idea is wasted in the first episode, a violent and often incoherent hour that harkens back to the wildly implausible cop shows of the 1970s, with a little post-Katrina conspiracy stirred in. |
