LIFE breathes new life into the classic cop show. The hallmark of Rand Ravich's beautifully realized drama is the emergence of an original character in homicide detective "Charlie Crews," a man reclaiming his life in a profession that brings him in touch with death each day on the beat. Compelling and insightful, this stylish procedural is not solely about solving a crime, but also about a range of adult, emotional issues not traditionally observed in the genre - including an arresting exploration of what it is to achieve transcendence.
