Review of Standoff

Standoff (2006–2007)
10/10
Refreshing new show
21 January 2007
I think this show is one of the best that has been on TV in a long time. It is always clever and exciting with a good mix of romance, drama, comedy and action. I hope it is around for many seasons to come.

Too often in the last few years we have seen spin-off after spin-off of the same formulaic "Cooke cutter shows" offering nothing new in terms of entertainment; various versions of "reality TV shows" and "Forensic shows" can be seen at any hour of the day ad nauseam. Then like a breath of fresh air Standoff came on the scene offering so much more. It is the quintessential TV drama packed with dynamic characters whose chemistry is nothing short of electric. Ron Livingston and Rosemarie DeWitt are red hot together on screen. This is a truly fantastic show.
