Very good early years and young actors beginning in this show. The first episode quite different from the other two, and not as much filming of people's backs after the pilot ep. !

Early days. From the badly acted, written and directed (and pretty much retconned) pilot from the "Storyboard" anthology series to the series itself... slightly better acted, written and directed episodes featuring early versions of later archetypes.

What an experience! A cultural adventure - at times cultural cringe! Exquisite for early lovers of this now much deteriorated police drama.

Great to see how some of the regular characters started out and to be reminded of some old favourites, and not so favourites.

Interesting to see the beginnings of a great series. How far they have come in sets, dialogue, etc.
