instinct and intellect.
The premise of the drama Detroit 1-8-7 is simple. It
picturizes the homicide unit of Detroit Police. It focuses on the life of
detectives and their relationships with one another. It is the first series
which is shot entirely in Detroit.
Michael Imperioli is the main character of the show that gets the entire job
done with conventional or unconventional methods. A sexual tension between
Fitch and Sanchez is interesting. The show has potential to engage the viewers.
The characters are well developed, the story is funny and the humor of the show
succeeds by its tender scenes. Producer David Zabel tries to present a
different picture of Detroit
than the media has portrayed. It is a challenging job for him to accomplish a
different image of city in a procedural drama. The mysteries are found resolved
by the climax of each episode in the series.
