This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

That was an excellent one.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

I've got a petition going and will be regularly emailing Fox for a good reason why we can't get this great show on DVD! Here's the petition link: www.petitiononline.com/mod_perl/signed.cgi?bpdondvdSadly my memory of it is fading - I rely on friends to remind me of the great bits. How sad is that? And all the time, Fox have got the tapes somewhere, gathering dust. Since axing this Fox have discovered the power of DVD to bring back shows - like Family Guy - so if they released this it might not only be a success, but it might be successful enough to warrant a new series! Come on Fox! You won't even have to do any advertising, the whole internet word-of-mouth thing will sell thousands of copies.

This was a great series! Really subtle but intelligent police comedy, a black cop trying to fit into a white police force assigned to a partner who was white but believed he was black. Sounds a cliché if sorts but it really worked so well! Both Ron Eldard and Giancarlo Esposito layed the leads superbly. To the company who owns the rights... ....please release this on DVD asap! If this never gets released it will be an injustice!Thanks.

It was a crime that this show had no support and fell away.I still laugh about Wade and his personal "soundtrack" and a few other stories I remember from it.But the episode which ends with the mugging victim having the prisoners in the line up beating themselves up, that had me crying on the floor.A true shame we didn't get more.

Paul Gigante, a successful D.C. police detective, has to leave town with his son for the middle of nowhere, i.e. Bakersfield. He joins the Bakersfield P.D., a loose organization of weirdos & imbeciles. His partner, Wade Preston, is a TV cop show fanatic and tries to act like the TV cops; the desk sergeant actually runs the department because the captain can't make any decisions; and a macho cop is teamed with a mildly effeminate partner.Like "Frank's Place", another great TV comedy that bombed in one season, "Bakersfield P.D." had no laugh track; you have to find the jokes yourself. This misfit comedy was at least as funny as "WKRP in Cincinnati"! Why do so many really funny comedies bomb?
