Jack Bailey (Colin Hanks) is a by-the-book neat police detective who is stuck at the bottom of the squad. He gets put together with Dan Stark (Bradley Whitford), a drunken, lecherous mess who nobody wants to partner up with. Dan is a 70s throwback and the stache to prove it. Yes, they are the Odd Couple of police.Bradley Whitford really goes all out with this character. He is absolutely wonderful. And Colin Hanks fits this stiff character perfectly. Diana Maria Riva is good as their frustrated Lieutenant boss. Jenny Wade is lovely as the flustered ADA, and possible love interest. This is a good fun show that only lasted one season.

OK I admit that I'm biased as I live in Dallas, but this show was fantastic. It's one of the few shows which realistically portrays Dallas and it's residents (The other obviously is the show "Cheaters"). The writing is the best part of this show as the production budget is one of the smallest of any TV show out there. The producers have created a show with the PERFECT formula. 1) Great writing 2) Great acting 3) Great Directing 4) Low cost to produce.So naturally Fox screws with the show's time-slot, then cancels it for poor ratings.Colin Hanks definitely sounds like his dad (unintentionally) but he still plays his part to perfection. Bradley Whitford surprises everyone with his physical comedic skills. This guy has some *seriously* good acting chops. Jenny Wade even manages to get the accent down after a few episodes. Don't get me wrong, the first two episodes are pretty weak compared to the others, but you need to watch those to get some back-story. Just slog through them to get to episodes 3 - 20. They get progressively funnier from 3 on.Great show, and I had a great time recognizing all the Dallas locations mentioned in each episode. I hope they release this on DVD or at least make it available via Netflix streaming for everybody.

I'll keep this short. I really liked Bradley Whitford in the West Wing and Studio 60, so I went into this show with reasonable expectations of liking it.But then I started watching the pilot episode and I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Whitford's character made me cringe every time he started talking. (His character reminded me of a live action Foghorn Leghorn.) I was wincing at almost every scene. After 20 minutes I had to turn it off. I found none of it funny, and most of it just plain embarrassing.This show appears to be a lot like _Psych_, which I don't care for either. So I guess if you like Psych, you can probably stomach this show too.

I admit I was a little dubious while watching the pilot. But the team that put this one together deserved a little wiggle room. By the third episode I totally got it, and have heartily recommended it to my friends. Bradley Whitford nails the heck out of it, and Colin Hanks plays his part well. If you get a little uncomfortable watching them, then you are on the right track. They are uncomfortable together, they are supposed to be. But the relationships evolves, as all do. That's where the quality of the actors works its best. Even for the over-the-top nature of the show, there is an underlying reality that you can relate to. And its just damn entertaining!
