A forgotten CW series is getting a second chance thanks to Netflix UK, and Virgin River fans may want to take notice.
The cozy crime drama Good Cop/Bad Cop, starring Leighton Meester, has recently been added to the streaming platform. The show only lasted one season, but its arrival on Netflix could introduce it to a much wider audience.
In the series, Meester plays Lou Hickman, a detective in the peaceful town of Eden Vale. She has long been the area’s only investigator until she convinces her father, police chief Big Hank, to recruit more help.
That decision brings unexpected complications when Lou’s estranged brother Henry becomes part of the team. Meanwhile, fellow detective Shane Carson soon becomes more than just a colleague.
Fans of lighter crime dramas have praised the series for its fun and easygoing tone. One viewer even described the show as “delightful”, saying it focuses on entertaining storytelling rather than darker themes.
