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?
Fox has their heads up their butts!! Keep APB on.
seriously you bunch of ass hats. you need to reconsider and bring the show back
Sorry to see it go. Once again Fox/Hollywood are clueless as to what people like.
bring apb back its a great show
It seems that every time i think fox is going to give me something to look forward to they cancel it. This is one of the two new shows that they have had in years that was worth my trouble, and with all of the shows that have ended the only reason I watch FOX is either Football, NASCAR of Gotham. Sorry to see this one go
Luv that show. He may have seemed like a know it all, but he was truly helping people. Bring the show back, please. I even got my husband liking it..
Why you guys keep cancelling shows that are interesting to us, shows that because we work we record to watch over and over again WHY WHY. APB is another show you guys cancelled, PURE GENIUS was another one. And the sad part you guys don’t have shows to back this one up.
I’m truly shocked b/c I thought APB would appeal to so many people. It has technology, violence and sexual tension. It had a clever way of solving problems with a tech genius. Cancelled? Go figure…
Every time I like a show it is canceled. APB was one of the best on television, bring it back. I think I will ‘cancel’ watching Fox and see how they do when they have no viewers for any of their shows.
A show ahead of the times with great acting on going drama and one of the best cop shows there is. Why would you cancel it? Same goes with Sleepy Hollow, I can understand why not as many watched it as they wanted,… They air it in competition with Monday night football then change it to Friday night when everyone goes out for dinner and/or the movie theater.
Love APB. PLEASE RENEW IT!
Noooooo! I love this show.
Real bummer. This was a great show.
Very good show, we don’t understand why is cancelled, apparently Fox have no good ideas about shows.
The best show ever, don’t understand why
Bring it back
