    Really enjoyed this show when it aired, and I remember my friends one by one, sneaking out of the room...🤣🤣 I'm still known as the Guy Who Liked Cop Rock.
    That opening rap is pretty, um, well, real uh, on-the-beat as some would say.

      I enjoyed the Glee musical performances, but the show itself, with the contrived interpersonal conflicts and drama, wore me down after about 5 episodes. I realized I was watching the show only to see the next musical performance, so I watched them on UA-cam so I didn't have to watch the rest of the show. Cop Rock, on the other hand, is interesting in a weird way. I can see why it never really caught on.

      Agreed! I told my friends that the worst thing Ryan Murphy could do is turn Glee into Cop Rock and he did; nothing can ever top Cop Rock!

    This show was clearly trying to split the difference between goofy musical and gritty early-era-Law-and-Order noir and while it didn’t work on prime time I feel like it would’ve KILLED on streaming

    I can't thank you enough for putting all eleven episodes on. And without ads! And best of all, not all fuzzy like so many old TV shows broadcast on UA-cam. Cop Rock is maybe our favorite TV show of all time and we can't believe how fresh it still is after thirty one years.

    From 0:00 to 5:40 this show really worked. Intensity and energy made you want to keep watching to see what would happen next. A great example of a TV pilot creating an impact in the first five minutes.

    I guess I'm one of the minority that LOVED (and loves) that show!!
    As a side note,in episode 5, when Kathleen Wilhoite sings "More Than Enough" - that actually is one of my favorite songs and performances of the song of all time.

    I was in college and never seen this before. I was watching a compilation of Dave Letterman calling his mom up and he had her watch it and called her back to see if she liked it. So I was intrigued ( she didn't care for it too much) and being a big fan of cop shows here I am! I just started it. Thank you for putting this on!

    I repect this show for trying to bring Les Miserables type theater to tv. The problem is this show is too gritty that the music takes you out of it. The reason Glee works it because singing is part of the premise so it feels more natural.
    So Glee caters towards a demographic that was responsive to it. I cant see anyone who watches cop shows being like "ooh its like NYPDS Blue meets Broadway!"

  • @rubyhusar117
    @rubyhusar117 3 місяці тому

    Wow, I've never seen a cop show so blatantly true to life. These bastards are out here stealing babies away from their mothers over less than an ounce of drugs, torturing detainees, starting gunfights for no reason in public spaces, and generally acting like a bunch of thugs, yet I think the show still actually expects you to be on their side.

    I've heard about this show for years and never seen an episode. It gets a lot of points for just plain weirdness. I think if it overall hadn't been so weak in the writing, music included, it would have stood a chance.
