I THINK SOUTHLAND IS ONE THE BEST POLICE SHOWS EVER MADE. WHY? IT FEELS SO REAL. THE CHARACTERS LOOK LIKE REAL PEOPLE.
I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT NBC WOULD CANCEL THIS SHOW FOR BEING “TOO DARK” ?
REALLY? AFTER BEING A DIE HARD LAW & ORDER FAN (THE ORIGINAL LAW & ORDER WHERE ‘MAX’ WAS GUNNED DOWN UNEXPECTANTLY OR THE DEALING THE ‘MACHUZZIO FAMILY’) IT WOULD SEEM LIKE ‘SOUTHLAND’ WOULD FIT PERFECTLY.
THE ‘MARTHA RUIZ’ RUTHLESS CARTEL LEADER SEEMED SO REAL BECAUSE IT SHOWED HOW IN REAL LIFE, THERE ARE RUTHLESS, LAWLESS CHARACTERS WHO CAN’T BE DEPORTED EASILY BECAUSE OF OUR LAWS GRANTING AMENSTY TO THOSE WHO CLAIM THEY WILL BE PUT TO DEATH IF RETURNED TO THEIR COUNTRY.
I LOVE THIS SHOW!!! MY BROTHERS CAME OVER & WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A QUICK VISIT-ENDED UP WITH ALL OF US WATCHING THE 3 EPISODES BACK TO BACK (CURTESY OF NETFLICKS)WITHOUT INTERRUPTION. WE WERE GLUED TO OUR SEATS!!!
WE LOVE THIS SHOW! THE CHARACTERS LOOK REAL! NOT PERFECT-FLAWED!
AND BEST OF ALL WE LOVE REGINA KING’S CHARACTER…& ‘RICHTER’ THE DRUG DOG! OH-WE LOVE THIS SHOW!!!
WE CAN’T WAIT TO SEE IT ON TNT!
(AND WHO KNOWS MAYBE TNT WILL PICK UP THE EVENT AS WELL).
THANK GOODNESS FOR TNT! WE LOVE DRAMAS WITH A TOUCH OF ACTION!

My friends’ father is the DP on Southland. I’ve enjoyed the show and am glad for more than just myself that TNT picked it up.

Honestly, at this point, I don’t think “Life” can come back, too much time has passed. Not to mentioned they kind of wrapped up “Life” pretty nicely. Crew’s whole arc was resolved. “Life” was one of the best shows I’ve ever had the pleasure of watching.

Right there with you about Life. I’d love to see that show continue, regardless of the network.
