News Netflix’s new crime thriller show is now streaming — here’s what you should know

Probably not as good as PBS' Annika.
January 15, 2025 - I would say that it depends on what your criteria for "good" is. If you are interested in soap operas in the guise of "police dramas". Then I would say you are correct. In my opinion 90% of the "police dramas" on offer from the likes of PBS, streaming services, and Network TV. Are intended for female audiences and contain in-depth studies of characters' emotions and feelings, with solving crimes secondary. I love Nicola Walker and enjoyed a number of the series she has been in. However, "Annika" in my opinion is just another series where Walker plays the same person but in a different police department and position.

January 15, 2025 - In my opinion 90% of the "police dramas" on offer from the likes of PBS, streaming services, and Network TV. Are intended for female and older audiences, and contain in-depth studies of characters' emotions and feelings, with solving crimes secondary. Currently, in contrast to police dramas like the original Law and Order TV series, (crime committed.. Police investigate.. and hopefully arrest the guilty party/parties). Now the formula is to include subplots that are basically padding to lengthen episode and season lengths. Not to mention to appeal to certain demographics. "Public Disorder" may have some of those "ingredients", but hopefully it will portray something close to being a real police drama, and avoid spending too much time as to whether one of the main characters has "an asthmatic cat" or something. 😏 Marco Giallini is a wonderful actor and anyone who is a fan of his previously well received TV series "Rocco Schiavone: Ice Cold Murders". Will like myself, be extremely happy to spend some time enjoying his acting skills once again.
