646f9e108c Series follows the vendetta between an honest (female) police superintendent, Teresa Colvin and a corrupt Alderman named Gibbons, as she tries to prove Gibbons has ties to some criminals. And at the center is Cole's point man Jarek Wysocki, probably the most honest cop in the Chicago PD, who tries to clean up the city as well. Detective Jarek Wysocki, one of Chicago's toughest cops, struggles to clean up the town's violence and corruption. Though it started as one of the usual cop series The Chicago Code changed it's paced and introduced us to the cops vs. superiors not the cops vs. criminals kinda-of-series we used to. It is the kind if series that makes you love the law again and though at first I disliked the woman figure as a commissioner but I understood at the end of it why they chose a woman role.<br/><br/>The cast was superb and never mind the accents of which I usually not focus on anyways but the core of the series. I liked Delroy Lindo for his cool, charm and cruelty, he is very manipulative and I don't think anyone could have pulled this role of the way he did, he is the love me now and hate me later kinda-guy and what I liked the most was a brief history of Chicago as well as of the characters.<br/><br/>What makes it unique from the other shows is that it is a reality of the times we are living in where we have all heard of corrupt superiors or aldermen yet there is nothing done about them… It brings a new meaning to whatever you do will catches up with you.<br/><br/>All in all I enjoyed the series and was somehow glad they cancelled it it should have been a bore… Running around the same circle… <br/><br/>It came, we saw it and we loved it… My wife and I are very picky about the types of shows we watch, especially when it comes to crime dramas. They are a dime a dozen.<br/><br/>So, I went in to last night's episode with great skepticism and my finger ready to hit a different channel at a moment's notice.<br/><br/>But from the very beginning, this show grabbed us. Who cares if it is not "realistic" based on some anonymous Chicago cop review? It's a fictional drama. The show is well-casted, great dialogue, and a good storyline.<br/><br/>I love the narration by the different characters and the unexpected ending of the initial pilot that makes you connect with the characters and anticipate the next episode.<br/><br/>So far, so good.
