Motor City Vice

You like COPS, right? Sure you do. There’s nothing better than endless shots of shirtless cretins who can’t even keep their balance being hauled out of mobile homes by a police squad in full SWAT gear. Well, you’ll get that and more when Spike premieres DEA tonight @ 11/10C. It follows a Drug Enforcement Agency squad in Detroit in full pursuit of malfeasance (and I’m not much for iniquity or misconduct, but I’m a fiend for malfeasance). Spike, of course, bills itself as the Network for Men, which raises the crucial question: Exactly how homoerotic will this show be? More than Pros Vs. Joes, less than UFC would be my ballpark estimate. I believe that’s just the right amount to be worth watching. Besides, I like Marg Helgenberger as much as the next guy, but how many hours of CSI reruns do you really need? DEA: because watching people get federal charges for forgetting to flush their last roach makes for the best TV of all.
