- CreatorDavid SimonStarsDominic WestLance ReddickSonja SohnThe Baltimore drug scene, as seen through the eyes of drug dealers and law enforcement.A realistic, violent and overall brilliant show, this is a must see really...
- CreatorShawn RyanStarsMichael ChiklisCatherine DentWalton GogginsDrama series following the lives and cases of dirty cop Vic Mackey and the corrupt LAPD unit under his command.Chiklis easily steals the show as the moody Detective Vic Mackey but all the actors in this show are brilliant. Violent and controversial the Shield escapes the classic routine path by forging great characters and situations. Glenn Close and Forest Whitaker are bringing tremendous quality in their characters. A classic.
- CreatorAnthony E. ZuikerStarsWilliam PetersenLaurence FishburneTed DansonIn Las Vegas, a squad of forensic investigators are trained to solve crimes by meticulously examining the evidence. They employ advanced technology and their rationality to detect the perpetrators.Always there with good script and actors. Petersen is a reason to watch this, but Lawrence Fisbourne ain't too shaby, either...
- CreatorJames Manos Jr.StarsMichael C. HallJennifer CarpenterDavid ZayasHe's smart. He's lovable. He's Dexter Morgan, America's favorite serial killer, who spends his days solving crimes and nights committing them.Michael C. Hall shines as Dexter Morgan, punisher of all wrong-doers out there. Part of the appeal for me is the ambiguity this series provides on our ethics and our behaviour concerning crime. Overall, stunning.
- CreatorJason RichmanStarsMichael ImperioliJames McDanielAisha HindsThe everyday trials and tribulations of Detroit's homicide unit.A shame this ended so soon, since it had a lot potential. I really liked the characters and the style of the series. Heavily under-rated.
- CreatorHart HansonStarsEmily DeschanelDavid BoreanazMichaela ConlinF.B.I. Special Agent Seeley Booth teams up with the Jeffersonian's top anthropologist, Dr. Temperance Brennan, to investigate cases where all that's left of the victims are their bones.This is a lighter more fun series. The actors are really nice and most of the cases are compelling enough.Look out for Stephen Fry on some episodes
- CreatorDick WolfRick EidStarsJerry OrbachJesse L. MartinDennis FarinaNew York's finest police detectives and prosecutors fight to make the city a safer place. With integrity as the guiding force from investigation to verdict, the teams weigh every perspective in their commitment to finding justice.Great series that maintained high quality over it's 20 years span. A real classic.
- CreatorJeff DavisStarsKirsten VangsnessMatthew Gray GublerA.J. CookA group of criminal profilers who work for the FBI as members of its Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU) using behavioral analysis and profiling to help investigate crimes and find the suspect known as the unsub.I really enjoyed the way the members of the task force analyse the criminals intentions in each episode. This show really lacks no tense. A must watch.
- CreatorBruno HellerStarsSimon BakerRobin TunneyTim KangA famous "psychic" outs himself as a fake, and starts working as a consultant for the California Bureau of Investigation so he can find "Red John", the madman who killed his wife and daughter.A lighter series, again. I really like Simon Baker, I think he fits the role extremely well and has a really good chemistry with Robin Tunney. Police team with an angle, can't beat that easily...
- CreatorSteven BochcoDavid MilchStarsDennis FranzJimmy SmitsGordon ClappDetectives from NYPD's 15th Precinct investigate homicides within their precinct.This show has to be seen just for Dennis Franz's performance. Overall a classic not easily forgotten
