Black Ops

If you like the 21 Jump street vibe, you'd love this.

Its really funny, both the main characters did a solid job with the acting.

I don't understand how its dropped to under 6 here. Its pretty fast paced and not boring at all. I binged it all in one go.

Story is pretty derivative and not anything new but it still works really well. They also reference Line of Duty many times in the show (if you haven't watched that, give it a go). One of the best police crime/thriller shows ever made where the quality never falls off.

I hope they do a season 2 as this show definitely deserves a sequel. Watch at least the first episode fully before deciding whether to continue or not.

Hard to say whether this show will have any staying power, but the first few episodes have been pretty funny. The show starts with two idiot Police Community Support Officers with no policing experience who end up going undercover into a drug ring. It's a ridiculous premise, but that's the whole point. It's been a while since I've watched a silly comedy, perhaps not since Brooklyn Nine-Nine or No Activity.

While Dom and Kay (played by Gbemisola Ikumelo and Hammed Animashaun) break out their brainless antics, everyone else plays the straight man. The two of them have great comedic timing and work great together.

I especially like the fact that it can tell race jokes in a time when other shows are running away from them. Perhaps comedy could find its way back to the days when a joke was a joke?

Several laugh out loud moments in episode 1. Can't wait to watch episode 2. Funny - watch it. Anything that Hammed Animashaun is in is worth watching - he has funny bones, and is a brilliant actor (stage and tv/film). Such a great cast - what a treat. It should be advertised more. Silly, funny, witty, definitely British humour with class actors. This is definitely funnier than many programmes that get more attention advertising and press wise. More of this please. There's room for many types of humour on TV and it's always pleasing to get humour which manages to highlight something troubling or something blatantly suspect in society without being 'in your face'. It has that feel good subversiveness of Young Offenders.

I find UK shows so much more my level of humor and cadence.. This show is excellent. The chemistry with the two main characters is spot on. Its smart and funny and drama all at the same time.. thats hard to pull off.. its a great story line, plenty of hijynx, lots of HOLY COWS, a number of DID SEE THAT COMING... Seriously, well well done.. My only complaint about UK TV is that they only do 6 episode seasons.. us lazy americans like 20.. hahah we are a sad lot.. But i am so grateful for the internet and being able to bootleg UK TV.. It really makes me happy and this show is just a new addition to my tranquility..

Based on the writing the target audience looked to be teenagers - so surprised to find this on BBC1 rather than BBC3.

The basic premise had a lot of scope for laughs but the show didn't quite know whether it wanted to be a drama or a comedy and fell flat somewhere in the middle. It wasn't sitcom LOL funny or straight drama dramatic. There was a lot of effing and blinding that felt out of place in what would have worked best as a daft comedy for a younger audience.

Cast did their best and were fine but storyline and lack of laughs in the script let it down. Be surprised if it finds an audience.
