kedenbird Great Series ! Meticulously researched as to historic accuracy. 1864 NYC.The sets and costumes are fantastic and truly represent the period. We think of these people living a distant past yet we see through COPPER that their lives are very much like our own. A rough and tumble period it was; civil war, crime, class and race struggle and just good and not so good folks trying to survive.This series is so well made I am surprised it did not win more awards. I can't wait for the next season.Don't miss it. If you like COPPER you will enjoy RIPPER STREET (BBC) very much as well.Rick
farmergilesuk What the Hell's kitchen were they thinking of cancelling Copper? A third season shelved on such a cliff hanger, when the story was really gaining momentum, and just as Billy Baldwin showed up and confirmed he hadn't flat lined. Maybe a new TV commercial for a network provider beckons for Kevin Bacon's best mate, know what I mean? Anyway it was good to see his sleazy return to our screens, if only for a short while. Copper was a great series, not as hard edged as Deadwood, or as sophisticated as Boardwalk Empire, however it was good fun. The violence was a little cartoonish at times and it certainly became a bit modest just when you thought something really awful or exciting should have happened. That said, it really left the viewer wanting to know more about the characters and indeed the actors, who more or less did a great job, especially Kevin Ryan, who plays Detective Francis Maguire. He displayed just the right mix of brooding malice and dogmatic honour that made him really fun and interesting to watch.The first series starts off well and builds a good story, complete with a few historical inaccuracies and misplaced modern attitudes, but remember this is no Deadwood! Apart from a bit of violence, this was something your mother could probably tolerate. Then came the second season, which obviously must have caught a negative whiff about re-commissioning for a third, because the violence and the nudity are certainly ramped up. Now your mother may have a thing or two to say and you'd best watch it on your own first.This is a fun and lively series if you fancy a bit of period drama, that is gritty at times but never really shocking or uncomfortable to watch for anyone with a medium strength stomach. However, be warned that you will probably really enjoy it, and will need to be prepared for the disappointment of not seeing a third series!
artpf Set in the Five Points neighborhood of New York City in the 1860s, focusing on a rugged young Irish cop who is forced to navigate his unruly and dangerous immigrant neighborhood while interacting with the uptown Manhattan crowd and the black community. I was looking forward to this and it turns out it sucks. First of all all you cameramen -- did you know we're sick of the shaky cam? Why does every show now use the shaky cam? It's been done and we're over it. Learn your craft.The show is the longest 45 minutes of your life. It feels like 6 hours. Show's characters are uninteresting and the main character is a bore. The story-lines are just plain dull. And you have to submit to watching this show in extreme close-ups because they didn't have the proper budget to re-create the era.And nothing about this is real. They had to be politically correct and threw in a token black actor as a doctor! Yesh, that happened back then. Oh and the theme music is hillbilly music! I guess it's supposed to be an Irish gig, but it's silly to hear it on a show that takes place in NYC! Gosh, do you get the idea what a train wreck this show is?
chantel_ventling Me and a friend started watching the show on Netflix and couldn't stop! We even went so far as to purchase the 2nd season on Amazon before it was available free just to keep watching it. Really lame that it "might" be canceled for good. Note the hopefulness there! ;) It's a great show that will definitely catch you off guard and wanting more. Some of the cast was even a surprise. I won't spoil anything for those who haven't watched yet. I really hope even though the ratings didn't match the first season they will bring the show back for at least a third. Too many questions left unanswered. Give it a watch if you haven't and you'll know what I mean.
