K-Ville [TV Series] (2007)

The Fox cop drama K-Ville was set in post-Hurricane Katrina New Orleans, hence its title (the designation "K-Ville" was among the graffiti found scrawled on the walls left standing in the wake of the disaster). The focus was on the activities of the NOPD's Felony Action Squad, led by short-tempered Capt. James Embry (John Carroll Lynch). Heading the cast was Anthony Anderson as police detective Marlin Boulet, who, assigned to keep the peace in his old, now devastated Ninth-Ward neighborhood, played by his own rules, never dodged a confrontation with either criminals or colleagues, and swigged bourbon with cavalier abandon. He was also a compassionate family man, though he found it very difficult to carry on a long-distance relationship with his wife Ayana (Elise Neal) and daughter Tawni (Jiya Fowler), who'd been evacuated to Atlanta. Boulet's new partner was the mysterious Trevor Cobb (Cole Hauser), a "loose-cannon" veteran of the Afghan War whose previous criminal record had been fortuitously washed away in the hurricane, a secret that Boulet was willing to keep from the higher-ups so long as Cobb stayed "on task." The rest of the Felony Action Squad ran the usual TV-stereotype gamut, including resident jokester "Glue Boy" Gooden (Blake Shields) and sole female member "Love Tap" LeBeau. Essentially a standard buddy-cop series laced with contemporary cynicism, the location-filmed K-Ville debuted September 17, 2007. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
