John Doyle Globe and Mail 05/12/2021
The new series is very entertaining, odd and a fascinating hybrid of cop show, comedy and socially aware big-city drama. There hasn't been anything like it and, anomalous as it is, the series makes a lot of cop-show content seem irritatingly out of touch. Go to Full Review Alexis Gunderson Paste Magazine 03/22/2022
A complex, thoughtful (and still funny!) story that -- though its moments of progressive catharsis do occasionally ring too much of fantasy to be satisfying -- doesn’t pretend to have all the answers. Go to Full Review Johnny Loftus Decider 03/22/2022
Pretty Hard Cases crams little jokes into the margins and loves a good comedic call-back as much as it does moments of police procedural status quo. Take it all together, and there’s a lot of promise to its characters, premise, and rapid-fire vibe. Go to Full Review Bill Brioux Brioux.tv 03/21/2022
MacNeill and Moore were the first choices of executive producers Cameron and White for these parts and you can see why. Both can play it sketch show funny or dramatic. Go to Full Review Monique Jones Common Sense Media 11/04/2021
4/5
Thanks to diversity and acknowledgment of the police's overuse of force, this show is a breath of fresh air in a sea of procedurals. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Melissa D @RT11627752 Apr 28 This show was a breath of fresh air. I loved the writing and chemistry between the actors. I wish I could watch it again for the first time. See more Mark-Anthony J @RT75760638 06/23/2023 This is a test review See more 05/02/2022 Outstanding in every way. The perfect blend of comedy and drama with strong characters and a stellar cast led by the outrageously talented Meredith MacNeill and Adrienne C. Moore. Showrunners/creators Sherry White and Tassie Cameron knock it out of the park with every episode. A woman-centric cop show like none I've ever seen before. I don't understand why anyone would give this a bad review. It's quirky. Charming. At times quite deep. The characters and performances feel authentic. I'm in love with this show and wish a major network would pick it up for a full 22 episodes. See more 04/27/2022 I love this show! I'm soooo mad that the beautiful lesbian Edwina (Karen) was treated so unfair because with all she dealt with from the Douche who stole her job. She deserved better! I really hope they continue with the show!! See more 04/08/2022 Excellent show! The writing is fantastic, the acting prime! Bravo 👏 all the way around. <and it's Canadian BO-nus 🇨🇦> See more 04/08/2022 I love this show! It is quirky and funny and has drama while at the same time entertaining. It is a breath of fresh air and different then all the main violent blood thirsty dramas which are just sickening, Thanks for having a show that is light funny and dramatic all in one.
