[edit] Introduction
"The Hill" is actually not a fictious neighbourhood, the Caffees live on Carpenter Street which is actually located in Providence's Federal Hill neighbourhood. Federal Hill, north of Broadway is predominantly Italian-American, however south of Broadway Irish-Americans are the majority. "The Hill" is the most common method of describing the Federal Hill neighbourhood by Providence residents, Providence's other hills are more commonly called by their full names, ie Smith Hill, College Hill, etc. Dhallam401 18:12, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Episode #1
The text at the end of this entry seems out of place - "Samyutta Nikaya {...} a book of the Hindu Advaita Vedanta philosophy." - does anyone know if this is relevent or should be deleted?

[edit] Episode #7
The title of episode #7 is unknown. Both IMDB and TvTome don't list a title for the episode 7, and so I've listed that here. If you know better, please provide a reference. -- Mikeblas 02:36, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
The official website at Showtime lists episode #7 as "Genesis 27:39". -- Bean, 16 August
- yeah, that's what my TiVo guide says, too. I'm glad we've finally got the name in! -- Mikeblas 03:12, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

- Re-insert it if you can out into a context. Aaron Bowen 14:50, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] International Broadcasters References
This was marked as needing references. I added the Japan info before I had an account. The Japan Fox Crime schedule (in English) can be found: http://www.foxcrime.jp/schedule/crime_e0706.pdf. It doesn't indicate that it is the series premiere (although it was). I'm too n00b to know how to add this to the main article.Ushimitsudoki 14:36, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] writing tag
I think the article needs some work in its writing style - too many short, choppy sentences, not enough development. Amonhg other things, the synopses could be more developed, and the characters discussed in more depth, rather than just a list of the actors and the character names. Also, why is there no separate article on Tommy? He's second lead - certainly needs one. It's a good start, but would like to see it improved, to bring it up to good article status. The new season is about to begin, and is excellent (I've seen the first few episodes) - I think we may get some traffic here. The tag is only there to attract some attention to the problem, and perhaps get some more editors involved in this set of articles. Apologies to anyone who took offense at the tag - it was intended only to help. Tvoz |talk 19:17, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Error on Declan Giggs
Ethan Embry(Declan Giggs) plays a Rhode Island state trooper, not a Providence police officer. I made the change
