Chicago - A message from the station manager

New Chicago Series Supposedly Like Hot Fuzz Meets Murder, She Wrote

Or Brooklyn Nine-One-One Meets Cheaters, Which Is It?

Over the transom.
“Arrow & Key Productions unleashes the pilot episode of UNDER COVERS, a new web series filmed and independently produced in Chicago. UNDER COVERS is created by Chicago native, Carlo Lorenzo Garcia, who has recently worked on episodes of EMPIRE (Fox TV) and CHICAGO PD (NBC). The pilot episode is directed by Elena Muntean, whose film credits include GIMME SHELTER, COWL GIRL, and OUT OF SIGHT.
“UNDER COVERS follows the lives and mishaps of two amateur PIs who take on crimes of the heart, all while trying to find their own way towards happiness. After a dry spell at In & Out Detective Agency, McClusky & Cortez go undercover to suss out a possible cheating girlfriend who proves to be a better ally than adversary; the guys have to maneuver quickly to save the case and more importantly, the case fee. It’s a Crime Comedy that takes the quirkiness of Brooklyn Nine-Nine gets it drunk and has a one-night stand with Cheaters.”

Eh, mildly entertaining but I can’t see it sticking. Here’s the first episode:
