Added DiffLines:

* SequelHook: One of the final scenes in the final episode, "Ride-Along", ends with [[spoiler: Cobb and Boulet suspecting there is a corrupt cop in the police force who tipped off a major criminal multiple times.]] Too bad the series ended prematurely, and this plot point never got addressed.
