I lived in the heart of the Detroit for 21yrs and I still live close by. This show has great potential! And I think that will show in the coming episodes that are shot completely in Detroit and surrounding communities(most of the pilot was shot in Atlanta). It's great to have a show that's set in a city like Detroit and not your typical NY, LA, SF, Chicago, or Miami. To let everyone know, from local news stories on the production of the show, the director is from Detroit and everything (since the pilot) is shot, and produced right here in Detroit. Yes there were a few minor "mistakes" in the pilot I seen people complain about, saying "soda" we call it "pop", and there is no bullet train, but these are very minor things that can't be faulted when all we've seen was the pilot episode. Minor fixes for what I honestly believe will be a great show that is TRUE TO DETROIT because it is being MADE IN DETROIT! Please give it the chance it deserves!
