• Watched it when it was posted earlier. Pretty solid. I’ll tune in and see how it goes for a few weeks. Chi McBride owns it.

• Moving it to Friday? This was actually a good show. Keep it on Tuesday.

• I know what people are going to say: “This is just another boring procedural/cop-show made by the old people network, CBS!”

  However, this show is quite appealing and certainly worthwhile. For starters, the cast is solid: while Theo James and Kevin Alejandro are captivating in their own ways, Chi McBride is spot-on and controls every scene he’s in. Unlike so many other procedural/cop-shows, this series is actually character-driven (similar to Southland) and doesn’t emphasize the episodic format as heavily as other police programs do.

  Yes, we know the main character will never die because he ends becoming the Police Commissioner several years into the future, but that’s the point: it’s a distinct change in style, opting in-favor of more traditional story-telling while combining the “case of the week” format of standard procedural shows.

  I’d recommend this to anyone, even those viewers who’re tired of what CBS has been known to put out over the years.

• Damn, I wanted to hate it, but I didn’t. Here’s hoping it doesn’t become predictable.

• Unforgettable, with Poppy Montgomery, was much better than Golden Boy.

  Vegas, with Dennis Quaid and Mike Chiklis, is much better than Golden Boy.

  Blue Bloods is superior to Golden Boy, thanks to the stature of Tom Selleck.

  CBS should NOT have two shows with the NYC “Police Commissioner” character as a major player … even though Golden Boy is in flash-forward. Golden boy simply does not have stature.

  Golden Boy does not rank and seems overly contrived, failing in the same fashion as other shows where the main character seems to have just stepped out of a shopping mall.

  Chi McBride will find a good role in another show – he might find an interesting spot on Vegas. Plenty of hope for him.

• Don’t care for this show AT ALL, so I really don’t care if it moves to Friday. However, you better not remove Vegas, BEST show I’ve seen on CBS in a very long time. Haven’t missed an episode of Vegas, great cast, great characters, something different in a world of the same.
