@Dutch48: I think you're right. He does seem in better shape, now.

I love this show... been watching it since 1st episode as well. One thing I would have liked to ask Cudlitz was how does it feel to actually be co-starring in television show. Besides being on Band of Brothers, he really only appears in 1-2 episodes of tons of shows. He seems to really have found a good thing here. I don't think we have seen too much of Chickie's character yet -- but she is pleasing to the eyes.

I like this show. It's gritty and realistic. So far, it appears to combine the things I liked most (less police procedural; more character-driven) about two of my favorite NBC police dramas -- Third Watch and Homicide: Life on the Streets.

@Billy Chapel: I wish I would have asked him about the line he says to Sherman, "You have 90210 written all over your face," considering Cudlitz played Brenda Walsh's prom date on 90210

@rpa1973: I admit, I've taken to this show quite quickly.

There was also some comment about Sherman, "Donna Martin is throwing up" or something like that... so funny. Love references to other shows.

@hotstuff100: I love BOB. I would have loved to ask about it but I think NBC would have ended my interview right there if I started asking about an eight year old mini series.

@grimoneus: Me Too! I think it will, but, as I mentioned in the interview, I'm a bit concerned about this show being on at 9pm. I can see some,(ahem) "family" groups causing a stink.

@hotstuff100: That's too bad. And you don't get Hulu, either, yes?

@hotstuff100: hulu.com. It has all the NBC and Fox shows. Though, I think it only works in the U.S.
