I read an article that said they shot the pilot and the first few eps in documentary style (captions, lots of handheld shots). Supposedly they'll be moving away from that going forward.

I heard that too - I guess we'll see. I know the reason they went away from the documentary style was because of a little girl that was killed here during a raid that was being filmed for a cop show of some sort. They thought the city was too raw to handle a documentary style without it evoking memories of the girl's death.

On that note I'm surprised they let Detroit cops carry flashlights...
