As a retired police Captain, I am shocked that I actual enjoy this show! I have enjoyed the work of Angela Bassett ever since "What's Love Got To Do With It". I think Peter Krause is a good actor as well. The content can cheesy at times, but for the most part - it is on target as far as going to work and running into a total sh$t-storm. Of course, it's not as often, in real life as on TV, but it does happen. As for JLH, she portrays the unspoken heroes that NEVER get closure, so I understand why they wrote the part in that sense. All-in-all, it's a made for TV drama that is entertaining and can sometimes, hit the nail on the head. Nothing in real life is as simple as a 45 minute drama.

@ltjoy1241 Love this review from a real life perspective! Def agree with the cheese factor but love that it mostly aged out from early season 1. JHL was an extremely welcome addition to season 2 because I struggled with Abby and how they pushed the Abby & Buck relationship that was so awkward and clunky. Her storyline was so intense and at times her character feels overly emotional but then I remember that's a huge part of the character focusing on recovery and a realistic portrayal of someone who is working to overcome such horrors.
