I thought the story with the little girl was well done last night. Poor Fitch does the right thing by helping the little girl out, but it costs him his opportunity to move in on Sanchez.
The other case was pretty much your typical cop procedural case, I figured it was the girls the first time they showed up on screen. The scene with them chasing after the obese drug dealer was pretty funny.

I'm beginning to tire of this series. It seems to be a pretty standard paint-by-numbers detective show, other than the Detroit shooting locales. It doesn't help that I'm not a fan of the Fitch character (poorly acted and fairly one-dimensional), as he seems to be the central detective much of the time.
I'm going to continue watching it, for now, but if it doesn't improve (drastically, actually), I won't be heartbroken if it doesn't get a renewal.

I don't know if Lemmy is saying the Fitch character sucks or if Imperioli is a bad actor, but I disagree on both accounts. This guy starred in The Sopranos, Goodfellas, the Life on Mars remake, Law and Order and a large assortment of movies. I know we all have different opinions on what is considered good acting, but if Imperioli was such a shitty actor, how is this guy working for almost 20+ years and especially in A-list productions in movies and TV? Imperioli isn't Steven Seagal or Wesley Snipes.
I think he's doing just fine playing Fitch. Keep in mind, this is episode 6 of season 1. TV characters take time to develop.
