    Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
    Ivanoil If you like dramas , any sort of drama especially police drama im sure this show will be for you. First time i saw this show was a couple of years ago , i started watching the first season and left it because of personal issues.This year i found an episode by accident on TV and got hooked up again. This show keeps surprising in each episode , it seems like somehow they found the formula to put enough action and drama in a way it doesn't looks like a cliché of cop flicks. The cast is pretty nice and the story in each episode keeps surprising. At first i got sad because the series were coming to an end but then i realized that sometimes in order to not ruin a story you need to put it to an end.
    bkoganbing On the first day on the job the five police rookies who are the focus of Rookie Blue are told that forget what you learned in the Police Academy. The Academy is about rules, the street is where rules are twisted and bent for the sake of justice.Rookie Blue in terms of structure is most like Hill Street Blues from the other side of the 49th parallel. That was also about a precinct, but its perspective comes from the commanding officer or top down. Here it is from the bottom up as we see the precinct in Rookie Blue from the freshest faces in the place.The five rookies are Missy Peregrym, Gregory Smith, Enuka Okuma, Travis Milne, and Charlotte Sullivan. The main focus is Peregrym who is carrying the police legacy of a father who was once a prominent homicide detective, but has gone to seed.This is a nice Canadian police series. Wonder why it wasn't picked up south of the border?
    Sally Warner A great series although Andie could do with sticking to one person but I guess love interest is love interest. The plots are interesting and well written, with the odd episode being ho hum but mostly the people are reasonably real and not always completely likable which I find it captures my attention.I am hoping the next series is a good at the others. I loved House and this is much like this and it seems to be based on some real events.This makes it quite engrossing and as the characters stay in the series it pulls you in to keep you looking for the next episode. It is quite a hopeful program with a reasonably positive view of the world excluding the bad guys of course which being a police show it has to have.
    John Smith I was interested in this Canadian TV show and decided to give it a go. I watched the episode about so-called "Asian gang triads". This episode is full of racist slander. I mean, a group of mediterranean cops (self-proclaimed Americans) that try to breach in an "asian triad". Everyone knows that Chinese triads are all foreigners that operate in the West. Western-born Chinese people are all straight-A students and very Westernized (i.e. no accent, highly-educated). How come they even attempt to portray 2nd generation Asian-Americans as triad-members? It woul be like portraying those mediterranean cops as Italian gang members. It is totally outrageous and very pathetic of these amateur Canadians.In one scene, a white policeman keeps saying "Here, Kenny, Kenny Kenny,...", referring to "Kenny Chan". What this white man means is that Asian people are dogs. It's actually shown on TV channels worldwide. They show a black police woman to balance the racism out.To sum it all up, it's a group of Italian- and Wester-European immigrants in Canada that put up a huge amount of racist slander/lies about 2nd generation Asian-Americans. Avoid using your bandwidth for this racist Italian garbage. I gave it 1 star, because I couldn't choose 0. Rookie Blue is the most racist TV shows of the recent years.Utterly disappointed. Avoid wasting your time on this.
