Jack is a by-the-book detective whose habit of undermining himself has resulted in a dead-end position with the Police Dept. His partner Dan, a drunken, lecherous veteran hangs onto his job only because of one heroic act years ago.
With its head in the clouds and its heart in the eighties, Guys is well-suited to the breezy nature of summer entertainment, and a great companion to Nix's Miami spy show Burn Notice.
What distinguishes The Good Guys is that it's essentially an action comedy, which lustily embraces those stereotypes, sending them up while also carrying a warm affection for them.
