TV show description:
Offbeat Detective Charlie Crews (Damian Lewis) is convicted of a triple murder and serves 12 years in jail. DNA evidence finally exonerates him thanks to the efforts of his close friend, attorney Constance Griffiths (Brooke Langton).
While in jail, Crews loses his wife, his job, and sometimes his grip on reality but also ends up embracing the Zen philosophy. After suing the LAPD, he’s reinstated to the force and wins a substantial settlement. He’s partnered with unpopular Detective Dani Reese (Sarah Shahi). Lieutenant Karen Davis (Robin Weigert) questions Crews’ unconventional tactics and blackmails Dani into supplying her with reasons to fire him. Living above Crew’s garage is his friend Ted Earley (Adam Arkin), a former CEO he befriended in jail.
Crews works to acclimate himself to life outside prison while also trying to solve the 12-year-old murder and to discover who framed him.
So excitedddd."

This show should have never been cancelled, because of J Leno. find the actors and bring them back it was a good show. NBC made a big! big! mistake as they can see now.
This was an awsome show why did you do this
BRING BACK THIS SHOW. NBC DOESN’T HAVE VERY MANY SHOWS WORTH WATCHING. IT SEEMS AS IF YOU KEEP GETTING RID OF THE ONES THAT PEOPLE LIKE AND KEEP THE ONES THAT AREN’T WORTH CRAP. THAT’S WHY YOUR STATION IS IN THE TOILET NOW. BRING THE SHOW BACK FIND A GOOD TIME SLOT FOR IT! DON’T PUT IT UP AGAINST A SHOW THAT YOU KNOW HAS A STRONG FAN BASE UNTIL LIFE CAN GET IT’S OWN FAN BASE BACK AND GET NEW ONES IN. MY SON LOVED THE SHOW AND ASKED ME TO GET THE SECOND SEASON ON DVD. LISTEN, YOU DIDN’T LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE WHEN IT CAME TO CONAN & LENO, AT LEAST LISTEN TO THIS. PUT LIFE BACK ON TV AND BACK INTO YOUR DYING STATION.
Bring back Life. A great program that makes people THINK!. Apparently this is TOO HARD for the network to UNDERSTAND.
Life was a great show, quirky plot and dialog, likeable characters, good acting. I would love it brought it back and make more episodes. Enough of the idiotic fill-in-the-blank-CIS, xxPD, predictable sex-blood-gore formulaic shows. Kudos to the writers and actors of LIFE.
This was a great show… please bring it back… characters were so so interesting… please bring it back….
