My 2 cents anyways.
The show is about women involved in police work and how they conduct themselves on daily basis and the challenges they face on the job.

The more crime they deal with and the more serious felonies they have to encounter on a daily basis make for better T.V., and that happens to be in the rougher areas of Cincinnati. That is what America wants to see.

Ya, I get that and covered it in using "sensationalize." It's just that some of the camera work is mis-leading in that they will flash to an area near downtown that is blighted and then answer a call in Clifton - gives the impression that Clifton is blighted when it is really nice. Plus what would it hurt for officers working in someplace like OTR to flash through some of the vast improvements. Anywho, I find the show entertaining and have watched all four episodes. Cheers!

I think the most shocking thing revealed on this show is the fact that we have very unattractive prostitutes. The ones they showed on that other program Harry's Law, represented the City much better.

By any measure, being an officer on the CPD is a tough way to earn a living. I know I could not do what these women do on a daily basis. I'm glad CPD (and the Queen City) are getting such good publicity. I believe every TV viewer understands that what they see of Cincinnati is only a small part. And that every city has areas like OTR etc. I hope to meet some of these officers one day (although not as a result of misbehaving...)

Gotcha

Those women are tough. It seems that Mandy has more issues with respect than some of the other officers because she is rather attrative though (In reference to the one suspect calling her "baby")

She may have made a slight mistake calling him "hon." It does seem to be the case for her though. She has to assert herself boldly to get the job done - no doubt.

Thought I would drop a link from Cincy Enquirer.

I saw the show and really thought it was pretty good. Funny at times, too! I really like the helicopter aerials of the city. That Great American Tower sure adds to the skyline in many of the aerials. Definatly looked like they spend most of their time in the rougher parts of town, as I am sure that keeps ratings high.

It seemed a bit of a mistake, I thought. Everyone knows, I hope, that this is still somewhat of a free country and you should be allowed to call anyone you want "baby." It may not be the smartest move, but she is a police officer sworn to uphold the law. And the law is that a citizen cannot be constrained in free speech because some officer wants to be called "sir" or maam."

^^ I agree but not the smartest move.
