TV show description:
A dramatic series, the Tommy TV show revolves around a former high-ranking NYPD officer who becomes the first female chief of police for Los Angeles.
A true-blue New Yorker, Abigail “Tommy” Thomas (Falco) uses unflinching honesty and hardball tactics to keep social, political, and national security issues from hindering effective law enforcement in the Southland.
Tommy steps into her new job surrounded by her predecessor’s staff. Chief of Staff Donn Cooper (Jones) is a savvy cop with good instincts and the ability to be discreet. A polished and confident press secretary, Blake Sullivan (Clemens) is eager to earn Tommy’s trust. Ken Rosey (Chernus) is an idealistic speechwriter and former attorney.
As part of her personal security team, Tommy also hires Abner Diaz (Caamaño), a fellow street-smart New York transplant.
Responsible for hiring Tommy, Mayor Buddy Gray (Sadoski) is a charismatic politician whose goals and ambitions don’t always align with Tommy’s. Buddy relies on the political instincts of his deputy mayor, Doug Dudik (Taylor), a slick operative with questionable morals who is wary of Tommy’s growing influence.
Now that Tommy is in Los Angeles, she has a second chance at a relationship with her adult daughter, Kate Jones (Philip). Kate still faults her mother for choosing career over family years ago.
Tough and sarcastic while remaining likable, Tommy has the conviction needed to succeed as the first woman to lead the LAPD in its fight to keep citizens safe and crime at bay in the City of Angels.
Episode #12 — Cause of Death
Tommy and her inner circle fight back against an LAPD and city government conspiracy to have her removed as police chief.
First aired: May 7, 2020.
What do you think? Do you like the Tommy TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
renew this show.
I was looking forward to season 2 of Tommy. Loved the show. I am so disappointed.
We just got Tommy in Australia, what a shame it was cancelled, i absolutely love the show.. What a shame, lets hope another channel picks it up.. Great show
was a great show should have been renewed
No it should have not been cancelled!!!!
Surprised and disappointed to see this is being cancelled …. Felt it was more enjoyable every week as characters continued to develop.
I can’t believe you’re canceling broke, and Tommy after just one season. Whatever happened to giving T.V. shows more than one chance Hmmm!!! Come on guys give these shows more than just one chance. Seriously.
Great cast, great stories! We really looked forward to this show. It just needed more time and promotion.
Tommy was a great show and if given the chance would have gotten the numbers to prove it. Three months was not enough time for people to even know it was on tv.
Couldn’t agree with you more Henry. Tommy and broke are awesome. You’re correct T. V. Doesn’t give shows more of a chance. People are too impatient.
I think you should reconsider renewing tommy for a second season because really like it and it showed that woman in high profile job can handle their wait so please renew for a second season
Tony. I couldn’t agree more with you. They should give Tommy and broke a second chance and renew them.
This is horrible, it’s so hard to find anything to watch these days and when I do.
Why even put it out if they can’t see past season one
please dont cancel. We dvr most of our shows, and watch this one first. Great show.
I loved the show and hope it can continue.
