Line of Fire (2003–2005)
10/10
Terrific, intrigue, suspense, great complicated characters.

Catch seeing this one wherever you can, you won't be disappointed. Shows both sides of the law enforcement, and the criminal enterprise, in detail about how each person has to deal with all the complications that they must face every day of their lives. Watching this well over a decade after it was broadcast, all I can wonder, is in what world does a series like this escape the notice of all the networks? Only 13 episodes? This was easily as good as the Sopranos, Breaking Bad, Mad Men, and Better Call Saul. Top notch stories, deep character development, everything anyone could ask for except comedy relief. All I can guess, is that it was placed in the wrong time slot by foolish executives, against other shows that were already established, in the hopes of drawing viewers away, and when it didn't happen, they abandoned it to try something else, instead of putting it in a better spot. And what of the other options? How do all the terribly written other shows wind up keeping their time slot when something like this gets discarded.
