Freaktana A Major Disappointment

GarnettTeenage The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

dinon-1 My favorite show of 90's along with The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Malik Yoba and Michael DeLorenzo are very good and underrated actors. It's sad that there's only four seasons. Very interesting TV show and popular urban TV drama, great actors great guests, great drama stories and many more. First three seasons were very good, fourth a little less but solid. You will not be bored, believe that. Each episode of the first three seasons of New York Undercover featured popular several hip hop and R&B songs for its soundtrack. But why was this show canceled? It was probably because of Torres's death. Many of them believe that the events at the end of the 3rd season caused New York Undercover to jump the shark.

lavue If you did not love this show,you're crazy. I LOVED it! Wish I had sense to tape it becauseI would love to have the collection. I look for reruns, but I guess only in certain areas do they show. I too lost interest after Torres died. I did continue to watch my boo J.C.,but the chemistry they had made the show. It was a ritual for me every Thurs. nightto watch. And I hated when I would miss the prelude. If you missed that, you were lost!! I love you guys, and hopefully in this lifetime, I will be able to have the collection!!!!

Agent10 This was one of those unique shows that should have acquired more praise. While white-dominated cop shows seem to be the norm, this show broke new ground with a diverse cast and minority related issues. Sadly, the whiteness of Hollywood was far too much to overcome in regards to the shelf life of this show. Malik Yoba and Michael DeLorenzo were especially excellent in this series, demonstrating their talent as they were constantly torn between race, culture and the police force. I especially felt the opening montages to the show provided quite a trademark within the series, using no words and only the pulsating beats of contemporary hip-hop and R&B artists to tell the story in a neo-silent film fashion. Whenever I can catch this show at 1 a.m. (and this is only on the weekends), I am rarely disappointed.

John By many in the Black community, "New York: Undercover" appeared to be a show representing progress, a breath of fresh air. It was a drama that featured a predominantly minority cast. Black television shows usually are comedies. This is not good in terms of recognizing the Black experience in America. Therefore, the basis is good. However, the show had some problems.* There was an extreme overemphasis on the hip-hop clothing and the music arrangements. At times, I felt as if I was watching a one-hour music video with dramatic snipets. This was particularly true of the first season. The goal of this overemphasis was to appeal to teenagers with short attention spans. The show dealt with important issues such as police brutality and racism. Shows like "NYPD Blue" and "Law and Order" deal with these issues with such intelligence and intensity. These shows also appeal to those with higher levels of intelligence and longer attention spans. Young people were "New York: Undercover"'s target audience. Unfortunately, the average young person in America has a short attention span. Any attempt to expose them to relevant issues with intensity without style would have bored them. Hence, substance had to be sacrificed in exchange for high levels of style.* Malik Yoba developed an ego. He earned an NAACP Image Award for his role on the show. Afterwards, he felt that the show revolved around him and demanded more money. Executive Producer Dick Wolf threatened to replace him (as well as Michael DeLorenzo), and he backed off. This emphasized that this show did not survive on good acting, but on who looks good in a FUBU jacket!* The writers tried to develop soap opera-like storylines that continued over several episodes. On "NYPD Blue", the beginning of each episode starts "Previously, on "NYPD Blue",". Pieces of previous episodes revolving around various storylines were shown, to lead to their continuation in the upcoming episode. "New York: Undercover" tried to imitate that. It just fell flat.* The Fourth Season: This was the season where wholesale changes were made. Michael Delorenzo had been killed off. Tommy Ford was brought in as their new boss. New cops had been brought in. The headquarters was a building that looked abandoned. This new format looked like a middle-aged "21 Jump Street". This new format had some real bright spots. Tommy Ford did some nice acting in his role as Lt. Malcolm Barker. However, the FOX network did not allow this new format a chance to develop. That was too bad.Everyone tried. However, it was going to end eventually. For those who appreciated what the writers, producers, and actors tried to do, the only left is to enjoy the edited syndicated reruns.
