This is definitely watchable it's as good as any other crime drama but why set it in '82 and then make almost no effort to set it in '82? We see the female police detective in ep 1 wearing a suit with trowsers. You definitely didn't see women wearing those in '82. I have not seen even one guy with long hair. Anyone over 30 at that time was still in '70s fashion with side burns and moustache and ties. The ONLY concession they seem to have made to the era is landline phones, cars and pagers.
If you read the description before you watch it, you expect '80s setting so it's disappointing. Other reviewers have asked "why was it cancelled so fast?" I think this setting failure is the main reason.
