Under Suspicion (1994–1995)
They always cancel the great ones

It's truly a shame that CBS cancelled this show. As has been mentioned by other folks here, Under Suspicion was intelligently written with superb performances to match. I can only echo that in my own rather plain way. Brilliant scripts and acting, of course, is usually instant recipe for cancellation. It wasn't until NBC's 'Boomtown' came 'round that I found a 'cop' drama worthy of watching. They axed that one too. (Actually, 'High Incident' was darned good, too, but it also had a short shelf life.) I'd love to have Under Suspicion on DVD, since the station that carried it locally never showed all the episodes.

(SPOILER)

In my restless searching for any episode info, I leaned in the season 1 finale, 'Phil' was shot by a bullet meant for a colleague. Word from the network was if the show didn't return for a second season, we could assume she didn't survive. How harsh is that?
