TV show description:
Detective Casey Shraeger (Amber Tamblyn) starts her day as an undercover hooker working for the NYPD vice department but is suddenly and unexpectedly transferred to the division’s homicide unit. The young officer finds herself thrust into a crazy world that’s full of dark humor, bodies, and bullets. Casey’s immediately partnered with Detective Jason Walsh (Jeremy Renner). Their first assignment together isn’t any easy one — find the killer of Walsh’s former partner.
As the pair seeks out the cop killer, Casey begins to realize that the force is full of secrets and that’s just fine considering she has a few of her own. It’s also a place where it helps to have a twisted sense of humor, since every day could be your last.
Partners Eric Delahoy (Adam Goldberg) and Leo Banks (Harold Perrineau) are polar opposites. Delahoy has a serious deathwish while Banks is so cautious that he refuses to remove his bulletproof vest.
Detective Eddie Alvarez (Kai Lennox) is a practical joke-playing social climber who has no problem stealing cases if they’ll get him some front-page coverage in the papers.
Meanwhile, Detective Henry Cole (Josh Close) is a religious guy who’s trying to keep his secret past from both his streetwise partner, Allison Beaumont (Monique Gabriela Curnen), and Sgt. Harvey Brown (Terry Kinney), who is struggling to rid the 2nd precinct of corruption.

Please do not cancel The Unusuals. If you give this show a chance, it will become popular. We love it. ABC, you are making a mistake,
This show needs a to be given chance, It is by far one of my favorite shows in the past few years and It would be a shame if it were canceled.
I LOVE THIS SHOW!!! My teenage daughter and I do not want this show to be cancelled. Give it another chance. We have not missed an episode! You must give it another chance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you cancel this show, Ill never watch ABC again.. what are you doing!?
I love the cast, especially Adam Goldberg :c
I really want this show to develop
Its witty and i love it’s humor, it’s sort of like a dark humor
two cop dramas this year on ABC, Life on Mars and the Unusuals.
they already tanked Life on Mars, a great show.
and the Unusuals which is awesome and is sooned to be tanked.
those were the only shows i liked on ABC and ever will cause i’m not watching anymore after this.
A terrific show.
Great loss to interesting television before it’s even had the opportunity to spread its wings. Seems as if only the shows with superficial plots and no mental agility keep making the cut.
Such a shame. Great ensemble work…
This show was not even given a chance. Great cast and this really has a following. Give it one more season and you will see everyone addicted.
DONT CANCEL IT IT IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SHOWS ON TELEVISION!!!!!
please do not cancel this show. we love to see it every week. the show is different from other cop shows. you don’t give shows a chance to make it. at least give it another another year.
I LOVE this show…….why cancel a show before it has a chance to take off?
All the other shows that have been airing will be running reruns soon….once people have a chance to view it they will LOVE it too….. give it a chance.
Finally, a “cop show” that’s focused on great characters, rather than gruesome crimes. From the first episode, “The Unusuals” has been engaging and entertaining. Please do not cancel “The Unusuals”.
To save Roswel they sent Tabasco, to save that other show they sent Rice-A-Roni, so how about we send a bunch of unusual stuff, you know gag gifts like large fake mustaches, fake eye balls, thong panties, donuts, etc
LOVE THIS SHOW VERY VERY COOL
Love this show, great acting, interesting characters, great writing! Getting frustrated with becoming hooked on a new, promising series, having the network move it around & then cancelling it before it has a chance to come with the #’s they feel they need to have…RE-THINK this one ABC!!
DO NOT CANCEL THIS SHOW. it’s the only thing i watch on TV these days
