Did anyone watch this yet?
It was okay. Not great, but not bad either. It fits with the type of shows that USA does. It's a good thing that this is a summer show.
The overall premise of the show is a little goofy with the Cops going into couples counseling. But, I did think that Wes and Travis had some funny comic banter.
at their scuffle inside the Police station.
Alot of hot chicks, especially the chick from The Finder Mercedes Masohn. I even find Sonya Walger quite attractive too. A little surprised she went with the British accent here.
I was surprised to see the Pilot was directed by Jon Turteltaub and they had 2 stars from Jericho in it.
I like most of USA's show, so I'll check it out again next week.
For anyone who remembers, who was Warren Kole in The Chicago Code? Was he the driver for Jennifer Beals character?

I dvr'd this but haven't watched it yet. Waiting to see the reaction here. Is Mercedes Masohn a regular or was this just a guest spot? I'll miss watching her on The Finder

I thought it was pretty good. The premise is kind of hokey, but the leads play off of each other very well. It's a USA show, so you pretty much know what to expect. Although, if they realy wanted a cop show like this, why couldn't they have picked up The Good Guys?
DJariya, you're correct. Warren Cole played the driver Ray Bidwell on The Chicago Code.

You had to remind me? 
, The Good GuysI liked this a lot more than I expected. The only USA show I dislike is Suits, and I was afraid this would be like that. But I enjoyed it and got some good laughs.

I had no idea Michael Ealy had a new show. Huge fan of Sleeper Cell, so I'll give this a shot.
