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.

      Strength of Schedule for 2025

      New season new teams. Everyone we face has improved their team as well. There's now a full season of tape on Canales's offense and Bryce running it. When they win 7 games I will become a believer.

      Houston Texans... You Suck!!!

      I mean I think its a bit disingenuous to call basically anyone here a casual fan. I don't think the casual fan creates a profile then logs into it, in the offseason, to comments on mundane offseason topics.. I dont think anyone on here would be considered a casual fan. That said, I get your point. My POV is from the player. They sign this contract, move their family because of these contracts. When Clowney came him, we basically had a coming home party for him.  So yeah, I get why we did it and I know that ultimately the owner doesnt 'save' money, but I can feel for the human side of the player, which is why I want them to get all they can while they can.

      My guess is the NBA will either send Flagg back “home” to the Northeast in Brooklyn or Washington, or San Antonio so that they can keep building around Wemby. If I was a betting man I would take the odds on the Spurs. This definitely feels like a #1 pick that they will rig.
