Jonathan Lee (Jon Foo) is a no-nonsense kung fu fighting cop from Hong Kong. His sister Kim is eager to prove herself to him. She gets an assignment and assumed killed by a Chinese gang while guarding a transport to LA. Jonathan is partnered with fast-talking irreverent LAPD detective James Carter (Justin Hires) on the case. Kim reveals that she was actually part of the gang. Jonathan and James continue the team. Didi Diaz (Aimee Garcia) is a fellow detective. Gerald Page (Page Kennedy) is James' low-life criminal informant and cousin. Their boss Captain Lindsay Cole (Wendie Malick) discovers that Kim is actually working undercover to bring down the gang.This show has 13 episodes and canceled after 7 although the writing was on the wall before the pilot aired. Copying from a movie has not been a terribly successful strategy. Justin Hires is a functional fast-talking black guy. He's essentially a lesser but workable copy. Jon Foo is a few step down. He is stiff and Jackie Chan is not stiff. That keeps the chemistry lackluster. Over time, they are able to build up to a functional TV police procedural with some minor chemistry. However, it runs out of time before it could find its feet.

I am a fan of the show, I enjoy the show. Even though I do enjoy the show some of it is overly repetitive, plus the characters don't seem to have chemistry together, some of the episodes you can guess what is going to happen but you can do that most TV shows at the moment. Well that all the negativity. I do like how Lee is adapting with each episode and is getting to grips with the American culture, I also like how they play Gerald into all the episodes giving him some way to help the two. Some episodes do feel like they miss a certain something, and other can over compensate, I do feel like this show has got a bad reputation for them not being the original characters and I like that about the show, it makes it for better watching. Overall I think the show is good and is worth the watch, even though I have been mostly negative I do really like the show and want it to do well.

When I was first turned towards this TV series I was more than a little skeptical. I mean, I really LOVE the movies (okay, more like I love the first one and tolerate the last two, but it still counts). And they were daring to touch these beloved characters? Nu- uh, no way. But my friend reminded me to not judge a book by its cover. "Just try it out," she said, waving the remote. So, I did.And boy was I ever glad. I laughed through the whole first episode. Then I watched every other one posted on Comcast, and laughed some more. Since then, I've made sure to watch every episode that comes out. Now, I know a lot of people say some negative things about this show. "It's not Jackie Chan!" they whine. True, but then, they never said it would be. It's not really fair to compare the two on whether or not they have famous actors or not. And I like the Lee they chose. He's not Jackie Chan, but he's not horrible (he's actually really good). "The humor is corny!" they snipe. And, yeah, it kind of is. Especially in the first episode, but it evens itself out pretty quickly, and the actors get more comfortable with each other. Plus, I appreciate the clean humor. The only thing I'd say they could work on is two fold (here there might be a teeny, tiny SPOILER, you have been warned). 1) The late hour it's shown really make it hard to watch when it first comes out. 10am on Thursday. I, for one, can't stay up that late. I usually watch it the night after. 2) (this would be the small spoiler) Lee could stand to be a less perfect. True, as the show goes on, he gets less Superman-y, but then he immediately shakes it off and BAM! he's back out in the action. Dude! There's just no way. I get that he's got moves and is tough, but when he's badly injured, you need to keep him limited to that injury the whole episode (not just the next two minutes). All in all, I like the show. I hope they do a second season. Will there be people who hate it? Most likely. But I think there will be plenty of people who will like it too. Hope this helps a few of you give it a chance.

I don't get why people hate this show so much it's actually quite good. I have struggled to find a buddy cop comedy TV series and when I found out that they were making a Rush Hour TV series i was very excited. I've watched the first 4 episodes and to be honest i have laughed a considerable amount of times but script can be improved, Lee- Carter partnership needs to be more developed and probably my main complaint is tone down the racial stereotypes. Every episode they insult Lee by calling him Korean or calling him Bruce Lee its not funny. One racial joke is fine two at the most but making it your main punchline is not acceptable. All in all don't make so many racial quips make some more interesting cases instead of the same bomber/mass murderer thing and if this happens in the next few episodes, i will be really happy
