Southland - Season 1
These are the powerful events we are experiencing through that man named John Cooper, a seasoned cop from Los Angeles charged with training the young rookie Ben Sherman in a completely unexpected way. It may be quite different during that task as Cooper's harsh and powerful approach often leaves Ben asking if he has what it takes to be a policeman. It seems that Ben Sherman is still in power and faces those difficulties.
