Well, then. It seems like nothing, I've been waiting for a new episode for so long that I'm determined to enjoy everything. But it's kind of short. Thank you for not bullying Tim and Lucy. There's some kind of drama in the Wade family, it's kind of strained, you can see that the scriptwriters are looking at them and thinking: Well, well, well, what can be squeezed out here, on what soil. With Monica, there was such a situation right with the loan, and all the dynamics were merged. And Prague felt superfluous, nothing was really revealed, a little bit here, a little bit here.

@sengileiolga:

And Prague felt superfluous, nothing was really revealed, a little bit here, a little bit here.

In general, as I read the descriptions about where the events will take place in the new season, I did not like this idea because for so many seasons I got used to events taking place in their city - state and everything is already so familiar there, the atmosphere of the series about the police, and here you have the feeling that they want to either take someone out of the series to whom I'm tired of playing it with 2 prepositions and 1 agreed, or they want to drag everyone there and shoot like 2 breath of the series there

But from what I've seen, it seems to be normal except for this line that they are looking for people to join their team.

it was worth waiting for the release of the season for this moment.
Now the main thing is that Tim should not be considered for Gray's place, otherwise it will start again😂

A great start to the new season! It feels like new life has been breathed into the series. Yes, changes and development are necessary, and there is no way to do without them in life) otherwise stagnation.
I am very happy that all the characters continue to evolve and shine. I am touched by the beginning of this season, and I believe it will get better later...

Unexpectedly, the episode was posted early, it's nice) I hope it will be the same from now on. It's a good thing they didn't jump into a fucking cloud of time, otherwise they have problems with timing. Angela made the Chenfords' cupid happy😂 "If you don't figure out your relationship, I will"
But why did I get the feeling that this reconciliation was crumpled up or even written on my knee, as if there were more interesting options🤔
But in general, the beginning of season 8 (as for me) is more interesting than the beginning of season 7.

We've been waiting for this for 2 years in Azkaban. Thank you Alexi for not dragging out an already overly long breakup. A good start, overall. The beautiful Bridget Regan, the whole team is working together, Miles is moving in with Selina, Lucy is moving in with Tim. Plus, there is a reserve for official changes (Gray frees up the place of Watch Commander, Tim goes there 99%, Lucy takes his place - so she will be back on the day shift + Miles goes to study with Nolan, judging by the trailer).

Well, what came down to us from fanfiction, no other than "the morning after"

@dmarsova: if the issue is specifically about ranks, then there is no problem, they are both sergeants. As for the seniority of positions, yes, Tim will be higher. But here, in general, everything is complicated. Gray's office job was too much. The position of Watch Commander involves much more patrol trips. Perhaps there is some division there - who will be responsible for what. Well, or they'll come up with it, because so far in no interview have I seen Alexi again talking about the conflict of "seniority" in their pair. He promised that they would learn to work together in new positions, yes, but without drama, as I understood it.

@katerinskaya: well, I'm not going to go into these wilds, but just judging by the importance of the characters, then obviously Tim, even though he will become the boss / acting. in addition to the series with the leadership / how he learns to be a big boss, there will be challenges along with him, because one of the GG will be led into the shadows for the sake of a couple of flying scenes, obviously no one It won't, just like the TV bosses wouldn't approve of it.

I'm kind of glad that they didn't delay with Chanford, but something seemed to be missing...
Some dialogues became forced, there was no sense of realism and a relaxed atmosphere, maybe this is due again to the fact that they sketched out a lot of plot and each scene lasts a minute at most
The way each character kept mentioning Lucy/Tim was already getting annoyed in every scene, as if they didn't have other problems or at least a desire to focus on their work (was Alexi trying to apologize for what he did to Chanford last season?)
Somehow I would like Chanford to happen more naturally or something
Well, okay, I hope this is such a warm-up and it will continue to be better.

Lucy and Tim are together, but judging by the castling with Gray, it's not for long (will there be a conflict of interest again)?
At the moment, it felt like Monica was being taken out of the series.
The subs in the original are still difficult to watch because of their "tongue twisters".

The Chanfords are cute. I approve of Miles and Selina's future pairing. Somehow, surprisingly, she stopped pissing me off. And Bailey wasn't really pulling attention either. Monica is an incredible beauty. I'm a little worried about Gray's family, but it's great that everyone is happy in their own way. I'm proud of Harper for sticking to her decision to put family first. And why didn't Lopez get offered, I wonder? She has a family too, but she's also a cool special.

What kind of emotional swing is this? I think Tim will be put in Gray's place and he and Lucy will not be able to be together again because of insubordination. 🙃
To be honest, it's already annoying, their couple is constantly experiencing some events that lead to the fact that they can't be together over and over again.

@Maniachka: enter Daddy Cop on YouTube, there are the first videos) The track was started because of the series and became a cult.
And Nolan is mad at her because he inspired the musician to write this song. That is, the song is about him.
And he's confused by the playful ambiguity about the baton, "cutie cop," "daddy cop," and "arrest me, but do it sexy." Well, Nolan doesn't seem to be a fan of pink, fluffy handcuffs. 😁

It's perfect.
I've been waiting for so long, and finally, hooray!

Chanford bunnies, they're so cute, I'm so happy for them, and for us))
Lopez is perfect in her role as a matchmaker
Selina seemed to have grown up, such a beauty in general
Nolan is awesome, especially with a shot at Monica's defense.
Monica is gorgeous, the actress perfectly coped with the role, so not everyone can annoy with just one presence. 😅
And in general, everything is so fresh and cool.

In fact, it seems to me that this could be the perfect episode to end the series.
But I would really like another hundred hundred seasons, if it were really possible without losing my favorite couples and quality.
Of course, the Chanford wedding is not enough to fully close the gestalt (I'm betting that Lopez will be Tim's boyfriend, no, I DEMAND it)

Selina seems to be getting along with Miles a little bit. I think it would be good, at least none of them are annoying.
Oh, well, I understand that there will be some kind of trash with Miles this season, since he's the only one of the available characters who hasn't been gone through yet (for example, like with Selina, Aaron, Bailey last season)
