About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a Chicago-set cop drama that mixes weekly cases with political corruption and a sometimes lighter, less graphic vibe; Not for you if you need strict realism or deep complexity like The Good Wife.

Pros: energetic street-level cases; strong Chicago atmosphere; generally light tone | Cons: uneven acting; shaky realism; inconsistent writing
