L.A.'s Finest

2019–2020 · 2 seasons

A breezy, buddy-cop procedural with glossy action and banter, easy to dip into but rarely surprising.

Tagline: Partner up.
Overview: Syd Burnett has left her complicated past behind to become an LAPD detective. Paired with a new partner, Nancy McKenna, a working mom with an equally complex past, Syd is pushed to examine whether her unapologetic lifestyle might be masking a greater personal secret. These two women don't agree on much, but they find common ground when it comes to taking on the most dangerous criminals in Los Angeles.
How it feels: Light, satirical, tense and earnest. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Crime, friendship, identity, family
Content: Strong violence and language. Mild gore and sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
