Brooklyn South

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Brooklyn South was a short-lived American television police drama. It aired from 1997-1998 for only one season and was cancelled due to poor ratings, which were in turn due to CBS constantly rescheduling the episodes (and, in some fans' opinions, a too-large lead cast). One of the show's producers was Steven Bochco, creator of many well-known police dramas such as Hill Street Blues and NYPD Blue. The show attempted to create a similar setting of a gritty, realistic police station. However, unlike NYPD Blue, Brooklyn South focused on the uniformed police officers, rather than the detectives.
