Unfortunately the first reviewer (prak8221) is symptomatic of why this show was axed. I can't believe that anyone apart from the most puerile would think Law and Order was actually better than 100 Centre Street, but alas, L&A is still running whereas 100 Centre Street is not...
I found the stories absolutely gripping; Alan Arkin totally enchanting, and the whole show a work of art, aimed at the intellectual. It's such a pity that shows aimed at people like us, just don't rate well - although AMC has done Mad Men and Breaking Bad, and (is it?) HBO with The Sopranos.
We got 100 Centre Street over here as a treat from the good old Australian Broadcasting Corporation (gov't run institution known as Aunty). They also gave us Breaking Bad, and the SBS (another gov't run broadcaster) gave us Mad Men. If it was up to the commercial networks, I guess this sort of stuff would never see the light of day.
