This will most definitely be an up and coming show of the new television season.
A family cops with Tom Selleck as the Police Commissioner and Len Cariou, as his widowed father, who never got to be a commissioner since he didn't know how to play the game. One son of Selleck, a widower, who is dating, has already given his life on the force, another, nicely played by Donnie Wahlberg, is chief of detectives. This isn't by nepotism either. He is tough to the core and will use any method he deems necessary to catch the bad guys; as the show begins, the youngest son has given up Harvard Law School to join the force, and Selleck's daughter is an attorney, who must follow the law, while she knows the score.
We already see strong family ties develop at Sunday dinner.
Today's show also dealt with the abduction of a diabetic child on her way home from school. The usual ingredients are there, the hysterical mother, the child needing insulin and Wahlberg employing excellent detective work to get the culprit and tie him in to a fatal kidnapping in Florida. Naturally, our little saved girl in N.Y. presents Wahlberg with a cake. Cliché, but it's so well done.
I certainly predict star status for this show.
