- Who'll love it
- Made for crime-drama fans, anyone who wants a laugh and action fans. If you loved Peacemaker or The Gentlemen, start here.
- The mood
- Funny with heart.
- The pace
- 3 seasons: a few weeks of evenings, episodes of about 44 minutes, about 23 hours in all.
- What might put you off
- Rated TV-14. Probably too much for younger kids.
A fun and honest portrayal of two radically different female detectives in their early 40s following Guns and Gangs detective Sam and Narcotics detective Kelly, who by day are true action heroes in their own particular way: skilled, tough, determined, and ruthless. But by night, they’re both grappling with loneliness, dysfunctional families, screwed-up love lives, and a sense that their professional ambitions may not be totally in line with their personal needs.
