Commonweal, Oct 8, 1993 by Frank McConnell
Wer weisst? The show itself is about as good as TV can get. As a second-rank detective writer, I'm covered with envy at the thing: it's the way a big city feels, and it's the way it feels to try to live in, and make a human life in, that surprisingly alien environment. At its center, it's a story about how terribly hard we try to love one another, and how terribly hard that is: which is, of course, what the big city is all about.
And it will, I hope, survive the initial flak generated by Wildmon and his brethren of the AFA. Or maybe it will thrive because of that. Surely, no TV premiere in recent years has gotten this much media attention: Wildmon's wildmen have made sure that everybody who could watch the first episode would watch the first episode.
Steven Bochco must be, at this moment, one of the happiest guys in the world: not only because he's brought forth yet one more splendid demonstration of how good TV can be, but because he's summoned forth the ideal, thin-lipped and school-marish adversary to make his grand show look even better than it really is.
