I've watched most of the series via Netflix and have enjoyed it. It's not "destination" tv, but it's worthwhile watching. I find it one of the very few shows that have a slightly more right of center tilt to its main characters, but they're not overly preachy about it. I think Tom Selleck is great, but I'm a Magnum PI man from way back, so he has deep reservoirs of goodwill built up with me. He plays the police commissioner the way you wish a police commissioner really acted. The guy from NKOTB is actually pretty decent as well and I never complain about scenes including Brigitte Moynahan (sp?). Bottom line for me is that it's good, not great television.
