It's also fictional like the rest of them. People need to make up their minds, do they want documentaries or fictional entertainment. Because you can't have both. And what people want to watch as entertainment are these shows. Doesn't mean the majority of people think, oh their painting the cops as good-so in real life they're all good. The majority of shows, not just cop shows, have the characters doing all sorts of stuff that is not true to reality. Do people really want to watch cops that mirror reality....because we have news for that?

Lol, I get it. But you're kind of missing the other parts on BB when they talk about how different it was when Grandpa was in it, to when Frank was & is, to now. They've said numerous times, there's reasons it needed to be changed from when grandpa was in it. Can't really change how it was, nor how an 80 year old man did it.

I liked it from the start. Right mix of drama with that slight bit of humor Captain Yenko....

JFC-first it's a fictional show. Two-no it's not the worst, because according to those who say things like that-there's Chicago PD, COPS. The Rookie, etc etc. They're ALL frickin' fictional. We have documentaries, and well real life if we want reality. I mean there's all those who complain endlessly when these shows do show reality, because they watch them to "get away" from our crap reality. Just because our real life is not exactly paradise....why isn't anyone making the same idiot distinctions with the med shows, or lawyer shows, or space fantasy shows???? People spend more time on this, then what needs to be done in our healthcare, especially when it comes to people shooting up schools.

Reminds me of my dad, so I enjoy watching it. Though my dad always had a cigarette in his mouth. Same hair, same stache, same dipples.

Reply to anyone agree with me that if an actor plays a Character on a TV show for long enough you can't replace them or it is just weird? by Purple_Monkey34
Depends on the character. Like you said in soaps-more so than any other series. They change either because the actor decided to leave(many), died(Edward Quartermaine comes to mind), or taking the character in a different direction/aging the character. Unless the actor just doesn't do well, viewers tend to accept it....even if it takes awhile. Primetime for whatever reasons, viewers are a little pickier. Even when it's not an actor replacing another in the same character. Like when a character/actor leave, they bring in someone to be a new character-viewers always still compare them.

You do understand I'm joking??? Older means different decades for different "aged" people. The way you put it: aimed at older people, I mean 40's....sounds funny & typical coming from someone much younger. You know when you watch a tv show, and a character asks can you describe him/her-and a young person will say-old, you know like you or like my mom, etc.

I get that's what people would have wanted. But many of these kids are not born this way. I would rather have them be able to get help. Why does this keep happening? Is it the parents not "parenting". Is it that the kid needs psychiatric help. Did something happen to the kid when he/she was younger, etc etc etc. Yes, there are those, where you could have the best childhood & still go out and murder. But JFC kids should not have those thoughts. They also should not have to go through depression or be bullied. This world is doing something seriously wrong, that this keeps happening, yet were not changing for the better. It's not only the weapons. Why are we so unable to stop this before it even gets that far???

By most accounts he is not. I will say it made me laugh when they showed the party they all had at the end, singing & dancing. He was having a ball!

Love, love love St Elsewhere. I still remember Murder She Rote, Mrs Hufnagel a recurring "patient" and the malfunctioning hospital bed. You would have to watch the series to understand how hysterically funny it was....over someone's death.

How old are you people? It's funny how many will use the phrase jumping the shark, usually wrong, but don't know what St Elsewhere was about? This is why tv lists on reddit rarely seem to hit the last century. These are the shows people should binge, because many are the reasons the shows popular today, came about.

Entire series-Hannibal in Hannibal. For an episode Law & Order-Killerz-Jennie played by Hallee Hirsch. That one pitted Olivet against Skoda. And the ending still is kind of creepy. Makes you look at kids in a whole nother light....

Bad acting? May I ask who? I hate when people say bad acting, when the actor is doing what is written, & being directed. To put the blame on the acting, when you don't know what is happening in production is wrong.

And the 3 main broadcast networks dealt with that back in the day. There was less competition, but more from themselves.

Reply to comment by Lost_Hunter3601 in ‘Sherlock’ Star Amanda Abbington Says “Nepotism” Helped Her Land Role In BBC Drama by Neo2199
It's called family business, which was the backbone of this country. So why it is a "thing" now when there is a whole lot of actual bad things going on in the world, & people keep bringing this up....
BTW, I grew up in a family business, as did my parents(different business industry). And it's how I learned from that experience along with going to school for it-to have my own for over 25 years.
Her getting this role, due to being in a relationship is one thing that makes sense for the role she played. People always go one about how this or that couple have "no chemistry". Well this is one way to obtain it onscreen.

Lol, I don't know about FL, but here in WI it is one of the few food suppliers. And not talking about premade, but ingredients, paper products,utensils, etc. Where do you think food places get their supplies/items from? They just appear-magic.
