Dialogzitate:

[Referring to Cassidy]
Deaqon: That girl's playing you.
Van: Come on, man.
Deaqon: Why not? You're playing her. She came to your hotel room and Asked if you were a cop. Did you tell her? No. Because you're playing her. So what make you think, for one moment, that she's not playing you.
[Referring to Kane]
Van: You saw what he did to her face. You took pictures of it.
Deaqon: So what? Maybe she's playing him too.
[pause]
Deaqon: Look. I feel bad for the girl, all right? She didn't pull the trigger on my brother, but she knows who did. So that puts her that side of line and us on this side.
Van: You never crossed a double line in your life, right?

How to have a hit show and fail

This must be one of the best detective/action series made to date! I know I'm a bit late in commenting but I saw it recently in the UK and was looking forward to another series and have found out (fairly late!) that Fox have cancelled it! From reading other comments it appears it was too expensive to continue! Maybe if they cancelled 2 or 3 of the really rubbish series out there they could put the money back into what was a cracking bit of television? Not only that but they left the series on a cliff-hanger just to rub salt in the wound! Poor Billie left in a room somewhere with a leg full of heroin and a lunatic. Thanks guys! Maybe they could make one more to tidy up the ending at least?! What a shame that good shows actually cost more to make than rubbish ones? Hmmm, I wonder why that would be? If that was aired prime time here in the UK, I'm sure they could make their money but I suppose everyones moved on from that now and it'll never happen. Still at least it puts a stake in the ground for quality and maybe someone will take up the challenge of making some more good telly. Here's hoping ..
