Rookie Blue - Season 1
The series offers a wide range of dramatic and criminal events, where victory turns to humiliation when the suspect is thwarted. Andy McNally has made a crucial small mistake, destroying a long-hidden secret bite and trying to compensate for it by going face-to-face with a fickle gunman who already has the blood of a man on his hands. On the other hand, while other novices are trying to find a violent co-conviction, Andy gets a lesson in the dangers of clandestine work when she and her assistant in training, Detective Sam Swirk, are looking for a missing informant whose cover has been blown up.

It would be a welcome surprise to see this program go further.
June 24, 2010
At its core, Rookie is a terrible show.
June 24, 2010
There's simply no compelling reason to make another visit to this precinct.
June 24, 2010
Every element of the production from the eye-rolling dialogue to the cleanliest crack house in the history of drugs rings false.
June 24, 2010
No surprises here.
June 24, 2010
There's absolutely no texture in the world of Rookie Blue, no effort to make it seem like anything more than a routine hour of TV.

I can't come up with a not-so-clever nickname for "Grey's Anatomy in a Canadian Police Precinct," so I'm just calling Rookie Blue "Training, Eh" and that'll be fine.
June 24, 2010
The over acting that occurred during the beginning scenes with McNally and Nash detracted from the show because it wasn't necessary at all.
June 24, 2010
Others looking for a milder option to edgier cop shows might find this police drama an entertaining alternative.
June 24, 2010
It's summer, expectations are low, and you could do a lot worse than this genial, softhearted import.
