    Canceled by NBC after one season in 2015. It was a modern twist on Homer's The Odyssey set during the War on Terror.

    A US Army SGT on a special operation in Mali uncovers A conspiracy involving corporations, the government, and terrorist groups. When her entire team is killed she must take the long journey from the middle of the Saharan Desert back home while avoiding the both US government and terrorists which are after her.

    The Finder. A spinoff of Bones. Canceled by Fox after 13 episodes in 2012. It was about a ex-soldier whose traumatic brain injury in Iraq somehow gives him almost superhuman ability to solve crimes

    A combat vet with TBI super detective premise with that early 2010's blue sky tone is wild

    Another wacky premise Fox cop show that got cancelled after one season. New Amsterdam where Jaime Lannister plays an immortal Dutch guy who has lived in New York City since the 17th century and is a NYPD homicide detective. If the Highlander was a cop

    An unfunny show about outsourcing American jobs that premiered a year into the Great Recession

    To explain, there was a clear spam post there when I made that remark.

    The prophecy fulfilled.

    I must now go to the source Supporter

    Oh wow I really did completely forget that this show existed as if it didn't actually happen. I think I watched every episode that aired and then completely wiped it from my brain some twenty something years later. The thread is real.

    I just got a like on my post responding to this which is funny because it's just turned up on Channel 5's streaming service in the UK so I keep getting recommended it
