I watched the premiere and never tuned in again...  show won't make it past season 2 if that.

But yes, she's gorgeous.

Yeah, I saw this for what it was, propaganda, but I've watched to see how far they take it. 

This last episode was just I expected sooner or later. The question of big brother being the good guy, and the answer is yes...

Likable cast, and a spoonful of sugar.

There is actually a chance this show gets renewed, but it's on the fence.    Fox may give it another year just because they'll have gaps (Bones gone, 5 or more shows probably getting axed like Sleepy Hollow, etc).  

It's sad because the main actor is really good.   He was the best part of Weeds all those years and keeps latching onto failing projects.    He was good in a season of Tyrant on FX as well.

This new series was inspired by the 2015 New York Times Magazine article "Who Runs the Streets of New Orleans?" by David Amsden, according to APB's summary on the show's website. The article details the real story of the French Quarter Task Force, a private police squad that residents of the famed New Orleans neighborhood can summon via a mobile app. The group was founded by Sidney Torres, a wealthy entrepreneur who became motivated to help combat the city's high crime rate after his home and then the bar next door were burglarized.

Throughout the article, Amsden explores the French Quarter Task Force's methods of fighting crime, the persistence of crime in New Orleans, and the rise of private security detail in inner cities. The writer also describes the successes of the French Quarter Task Force in turning crime around in New Orleans, as well as the work that still lies ahead for the squad.

      ESPN's Barnwell Early Offseason Grades

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46683459/2025-nfl-offseason-tiers-32-teams-best-worst-signings-trades-draft-barnwell Slightly above expectations Highlights: Trading WR Adam Thielen, signing RB Rico Dowdle (one year, $2.8 million), drafting fifth-round TE Mitchell Evans   Disappointments: Re-signing CB Mike Jackson (two years, $10.5 million)   The Panthers chose the right time to move on from Thielen, who had been productive in Carolina before being dealt to Minnesota just before the season. He has been lost in the shuffle there. While the Panthers won't see the fourth-round pick that forms the bulk of the return for Thielen until 2027, getting out from what was owed to a player who has 47 receiving yards in Minnesota is an easy victory. Dowdle has been a revelation since moving into the starting lineup after Chuba Hubbard's injury, becoming one of a handful of players in NFL history to produce consecutive 200-yard scrimmage games. The former Cowboys back was averaging 3 yards per carry before the opportunity, so I'm not sure I would count on him playing like Jim Brown the rest of the way in a rotational role alongside Hubbard. But it's hard to argue that Carolina hasn't already gotten its $2.8 million worth out of the 27-year-old back. Most of Carolina's biggest moves are either tracking to be right around expectation (drafting wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan) or have been impacted by unexpected injuries (signing defensive tackle Tershawn Wharton). Jackson was a pleasant surprise as a starter in 2024, and he hasn't been terrible this season, but most of the big plays against Carolina have come on throws against the former Seahawks cornerback. Overall, though, this has been a very reasonable offseason for the Panthers

      How would you have taken the guy who was picked ahead of us? That makes no sense.

      I am not denying that things were said. That wasn’t my point. But carry on this will go nowhere.    Oh snap, the post calling him a liar was like three posts before you jumped in.  what do you get, a post a page?
