Lady Cop - "Thats great kid! You know, now theres almost no chance of us shooting you by accident!"
Man Cop - "Yeah, sorry about last time, it was dark!"
How far we have come. This show was pretty great for the time. Kinda preachy but I think most sitcoms were back then. This one was dark and preachy though, maybe that's why I remember this one and none of the other ones that were airing at the time.

infinite zest - 2015-04-30 I turned out watching a little bit of Backstrom tonight and I kind of liked how much of a racist alcoholic dick Dwight from The Office is. Dick meaning literally and metaphorically. Take away the laugh track and obvious Hemingway parallels and you've almost got the same show.

infinite zest - 2015-05-01 Yeah.. I downloaded the first two episodes and was like "nevermind." The last episode of the season is pretty good though. It's weird, because I sort of feel the same way about Better Call Saul, but somehow it compels me, and the part of me that wants to see a good lawyer go bad isn't the same part of me that wants to see a bad (or at least insensitive detective) go good. Also, what's up with the location? I sort of started watching because they mentioned a street I live on in Portland, and actually pronounced it right, which is cool, but the damn thing's filmed in Vancouver BC. That's common for a lot of shows, but that's a backdrop for New Yorks or Chicagos, not Portland Oregon. Plus it's cheap as fuck to film in Portland. In fact, they're filming for Grimm right outside where I'm working right now. For everything that pisses me off about how Portlandia could be anycity USA, at least I recognize buildings and faces. Backstrom continually references things that are sort of inside jokes within the pacific northwest, and it's filmed in Canada. No offense, Canadians.

The set was much nicer than the actual St. Louis bus station(I think I was last there in 1999).
