If it weren't for bad luck...
I wouldn't have any at all. At least it sure seems that way sometimes. I guess it could always be worse.
Anyway, I didn't get a chance to see Southland until well after the season premiere. It was good, but I took issue with the scene where the officer fires his weapon and the partner puts out a shots fired/officer needs assistance call. One unit responded to help them? C'mon. The only other problem I saw was the foot pursuit at the end of the episode. Why does Hollywood always have one cop run on foot while the other speeds away in the car to try to cut them off? That doesn't happen! If one cop is out running, so is the partner.
Oh, well. It's still entertaining I suppose.

Never heard of the show - probbly because I watch so much hockey! :)
Is it worth watching, and what channel does it come on?
Yes, it airs on Tuesdays on TNT.
Moe:
I know if a code 113(shots fired)call goes out (here)...damn near EVERY available crusier ROLLS on it.
Especially if an OFFICER ASSIST (code 15) is tagged w/ the call.
And yes, in a 2-man car situation, officers are both OUT or both IN the vehicle when pursuit is initiated (depending on backup units on scene, who may be either in a cruiser OR on foot.)
Not really good to "split up" in that fashion...too much can go wrong.
Stay safe.

Thanks. I'll try to catch it, if not, I'll program it on the DVR and see it at some point. Either that, or I'll see if it's on Hulu.
