Funny. Anyway, I found the answer to my own question, since CBS has
just canceled the Canadian show after just two airings. I don't know
how it is doing up in Canada.
Oh and anyone didn't catch the slight connection to BSG remember
Chief Tyrol ran a union on New Caprica. In "The Bridge" Aaron Douglas
plays Frank Leo the head of the police union fighting against both
the brass and corrupt beat cops and detectives in the force, both
exploiting the honest cops on the force. Oh and the term "The Bridge"
referred to the police district that he used to patrol and now in a
poetic way is the bridge between the rank and file honest cops and
the Brass, prosecutors and politicians.
Like I said it wasn't anything ground breaking but it was watchable,
and I would had kept up with it at least for a few more episodes, but
now that it is gone. I won't miss it.
Hopefully Grace Park will have better luck on "Hawaii Five-O" :-)
