27 March 2009. It is rare for any television series to be able to sustain a popular style crime drama and at the same time consistently and powerful captivate with strong and intimate emotional and riveting story lines that penetrate the soul and inner psyche of the human condition. This one year series (prematurely cancelled) contained both humor, a decent on-going storyline with the two principle characters and dealt weekly with hard-hitting plots that exposed deeply, unnerving emotional stories about relationships, anxiety, fears and provided great insight into our own feelings. At the same time, this feel good series didn't avoid death, hurt, injury and at the same time maintained a premise about the goodness of people. This series remains relevant, pertinent in this day and age of national security concerns, recession and in some ways has become even more important because of today's fears of societal and individual rage at the system. There is much that viewers can take away from this series and take comfort in the message that this series has to offer, particularly in today's uncertain social environment.
