TV show description:
A high-tech police drama series, APB is inspired by a New York Times Magazine article by David Amsden.
The Chicago Police Department is spiraling out of control thanks to high crime, officer-involved shootings, cover-ups, corruption, and under-funding. Billionaire engineer Gideon Reeves (Justin Kirk) wants to change all that. After his best friend is murdered in a botched robbery attempt, the killer remains at large and Reeves demands justice.
Putting up millions of dollars of his own money, he makes an unprecedented deal to take charge of the troubled 13th District. He wants to reboot it as a technically innovative police force. With Gideon himself having created the department’s cutting-edge technology, this eccentric yet brilliant outsider challenges the city’s police force to rethink everything about the way they fight crime.
But the near-overnight transition to becoming the city’s most advanced police district isn’t easy. Gideon knows that, if he’s going to change anything, he needs help. He finds this help in Detective Theresa Murphy (Natalie Martinez). She’s an ambitious, street-smart cop who’s willing to give Reeves’ technological changes a chance.
Skeptical Captain Ned Conrad (Ernie Hudson), Officer Nicholas Brandt (Taylor Handley), and Officer Tasha Goss (Tamberla Perry) are going to be a bit harder to convince.
With the help of Reeves’ gifted tech officer, Ada Hamilton (Caitlin Stasey), Reeves and Murphy embark on a mission to turn the 13th District into a dedicated crime-fighting force of the 21st century.
Episode #12 — Ricochet
When Gideon is blamed for recent terrorist attacks, he and Captain Conrad work fast to track down the real culprit. But Gideon finds himself in a predicament when Danny continues to use his technological skills to disrupt the city, leaving Murphy, Ada and the rest of the squad struggling to find a way to stop him. Discover who makes it out alive.
First aired: April 24, 2017.
What do you think? Do you like the APB TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I loved the show APB I thought it was very entertaining and a lot better than those stupid ratchet reality shows that keeps being cranked out every season. I hate it when something like this happens to shows I really enjoy. It makes me not what to support the station it’s on at all. I’m very disappointed they cancelled this show.
please a second season
I loved watching APB. It was a different cop show. Put it back on!!!!!
Fox.. Please bring back APB.. love the movie, because just like thrilling series with an ordinary problem that it might be happend in the future, war about the tech in the real life, the conflict between good or bad of human’ thought combine with their geniuses brain and revealed by their inner heart. so boring with some kinds of physics abilities in other movies which is so boring to watched
if they new they were going to cancel the show the ending should have been different. I was looking forward to seeing Gideon take over as mayor
We’ve been so excited waiting for the second series to start, and just read it was cancelled… what a huge disappointment!!! There are many others that agree this was a keeper… Fox please bring it back.
Really liked this show. Have been looking forward to it returning. So many other shows that sucked. Too bad this one is cancelled!!!
I really liked the show, with all the gadgets coming to the surface, I thought that
was so fun to watch, and see what they would come up with next. I hope you
don’t take it off. a very fun show, loved it.
Why post anything FOX won’t see our comments or care. To bad wish they did because there’s a lot of people out there who really loved this show.
I think it’s a shame they canceled this show, it was one of my favorite shows on TV and now that I know that they won’t be airing it anymore I think Fox needs to open there eyes and do a better job, there are far worse shows on fox and they are still on the air. NOT GOOD FOX!!!!
I am disappointed to find out that this show was cancelled. We really liked this show.
What a great show to cancel. It should be in your fall lineup. Very disappointed in your decision. Why not listen to your viewers.
I was just looking to see when APB was to be back and to find it was cancelled. We’re disappointed. It was like star trek back in the day, innovative and displaying what can be done in the future for police departments yet believable.
I loved this show! The technology was up and coming. With all the things drones can do now (that we know about), it won’t be long before they are routinely being used by law enforcement. Also, those cars were amazing. Please bring it back!!!
I would love to see this show renewed. IT was a great show with a very good storyline. Kind of like a james bond of police drama with all the gadgets
