Shades of Blue is an American crime drama television series created by Adi Hasak that premiered on NBC on January 7, 2016. The series is set in New York City and stars Jennifer Lopez as Harlee Santos, a single-mother NYPD Detective who is forced to work for the FBI's Anti-Corruption Task Force, while dealing with her own financial and family problems.

The series is loosely based on the novel Shades of Blue: 30 Years of (Un)ethical Policing by Michael Rudolph.

In March 2017, the series was renewed for a third season. NBC later announced in April 2018 that this would be the final season, and that it would consist of 10 episodes. The third and final season premiered on June 17, 2018, and the series finale aired on August 19, 2018.

Cast and characters

[edit]

Main

[edit]
  • Jennifer Lopez[3] as Harlee Santos, a corrupt NYPD Detective with the Street Crimes detective squad in the NYPD's 64th Precinct and an FBI informant for the FBI's Anti-Corruption Task Force. She is a single mother to 16-year-old Cristina; Cristina's father was abusive, and shortly after his release from prison in 2005, Harlee framed him for murder. She joined Wozniak's crew after he helped cover up her frame job.[4] After getting arrested by the FBI in an anti-corruption investigation, she becomes a reluctant informant against Wozniak in exchange for immunity.[5] She eventually sacrifices her career and freedom to bring down the corrupt Intelligence Unit, and is sent to prison for three years.
  • Ray Liotta[3] as Lieutenant Matt Wozniak, a corrupt NYPD Lieutenant who is the commander of the 64th Precinct's Street Crimes detective squad and the main target in an FBI anti-corruption investigation. He is a 25-year veteran of the force, and before that spent six years in the United States Marine Corps. He is very close to Harlee, whom he considers a daughter, and Harlee's own daughter, Cristina; this stems from the guilt he feels over the death of his own daughter Anna-Kate, from a drug overdose at age 19. After Harlee sacrifices her career and freedom to bring down the corrupt Intelligence Unit, Wozniak drives her to prison and takes in Cristina per her wishes.
  • Drea de Matteo[3] as Detective Tess Nazario, an NYPD Detective in Wozniak's crew who wrestles with her personal life, most notably her marriage, which eventually ends during the series. She is reassigned to patrol as an officer in season 3 due to the fallout of the events of the previous season's finale but is promoted back to detective in the series finale.
  • Warren Kole as Special Agent Robert Stahl, an FBI Special Agent assigned to the Anti-Corruption Task Force, and Harlee's handler. He develops an obsession with Harlee which, after crossing multiple lines, leads to his indefinite suspension and eventual termination from the Bureau. Stahl then goes rogue and after temporarily kidnapping Harlee, becomes obsessed with trying to bring her down by any means necessary, even by killing those allied with him and attempting to frame her. Near the end of the series, he corners Harlee inside her home, only for her to shoot and finally kill him with Cristina's help.
  • Dayo Okeniyi as Detective Michael Loman, a rookie NYPD Detective assigned to the 64th, who initially struggles to stay straight amongst the corrupt actions of his co-workers but embraces the dirty cop lifestyle by the end of the series.
  • Hampton Fluker[6] as Detective Marcus Tufo, an NYPD Detective who fancies himself as a ladies' man, and often has to deal with his brother's shortcomings. He is reassigned to patrol as an officer in season 3 due to the fallout of the events of the previous season's finale but is promoted back to detective in the series finale.
  • Vincent Laresca as Detective Carlos Espada, an NYPD Detective who operates as the muscle of Wozniak's squad. He and Tess have a brief affair during season 1, which is then followed by much sexual tension between them for the rest of the series.
  • Sarah Jeffery as Cristina Santos, Harlee's 16-year-old daughter[7] and a musical prodigy. She is often kept in the dark regarding her mother's corrupt activities, but soon comes to know and accept her as a good person. At the end of the series, after Harlee is sent to prison, she moves in with the Wozniaks, settling into their late daughter's old room and reading a letter left by her mother.
  • Gino Anthony Pesi[8] as James Nava (seasons 2–3; recurring season 1), the Assistant District Attorney assigned to monitor the 64th Precinct and who becomes romantically involved with Harlee. He is murdered at the start of season 3 by the corrupt Intelligence Unit detectives after being entrusted with a suspect running from them, who is killed along with him.

He later returns and is captured by Harlee and Wozniak, who aim to use him as a bargaining chip to get out from under the FBI's thumb. However, Stahl instead prevents this by murdering Linklater in cold blood and his body is cremated by Harlee and Wozniak.
  • Antonio Jaramillo as Miguel Zepeda (season 1), Harlee's violently abusive ex-boyfriend and Cristina's father. Wozniak and Harlee conspired to frame him for murder in order to keep Harlee and Cristina safe. He is later released and tries to reconnect with his daughter but is repeatedly stalled by Harlee's attempts to keep Cristina away from him. Harlee eventually kills him in self-defense after he attempts to rape her at gunpoint. His disappearance becomes a focus point in season 2 as Stahl attempts to uncover the truth behind it.

  • Afton Williamson as Katie Myers (season 3), an FBI special agent assigned to search for Stahl after he becomes a fugitive, but is later revealed to be allied with him, due to Stahl having saved her life when the two were in Quantico. Stahl later kills her after their attempted frame job against Harlee comes apart and she refuses to help him again after discovering he'd been keeping certain secrets from her.
  • Bruce McGill as Jordan Ramsey (season 3), the corrupt captain who heads the NYPD's Intelligence Unit.

  • Nick Wechsler as Anthony Cole (season 3), a lieutenant in the Intelligence Unit who turns against them after they orchestrate the death of his partner.

Themes

[edit]

Character Harlee Santos is an NYPD detective who is a single mother. She is corrupt, taking bribes and protection money so that she can provide for her daughter.[27] When confronted, she is forced by the FBI to go undercover and investigate her own squad. In their book, Reel Latinxs: Representation in U.S. Film and TV, academics Frederick Luis Aldama and Christopher González suggest that Santos is depicted as duplicitous and traitorous. They argue that the show follows a Latina-as-mamá stereotype.[28] Conversely, Willa Paskin, writing for Slate magazine, argues that Santos is presented too sympathetically and generously: she is "down-to-earth and competent, flipping from flirtatious to distressed, maternal to infuriated."[29]

Critical response

[edit]

The show has received mixed reviews despite praise for Lopez's performance. On Metacritic, Shades of Blue has a score of 58 out of 100, based on 28 critics.[38] On Rotten Tomatoes, the show is rated 57% based on 42 reviews, with an average rating of 5.8/10. The site's consensus reads "Solid performances by Jennifer Lopez and Ray Liotta fail to lift Shades of Blue above the ranks of the pedestrian network procedural".[39]

Writing for USA Today, Robert Bianco gave the series two stars out of four, calling it "a thoroughly ordinary reworking of pretty much every crooked cop show and movie you've ever seen".[40] Slate reviewer Willa Paskin criticized the show as "moderately terrible", though praised Lopez's performance as "hugely appealing" and called her "the show's one reliable pleasure".[41] In a more positive review, Yahoo!'s Ken Tucker called Lopez's work "solid" and felt the series was "perhaps the best dramatic work she's done since her first-rate film, Out of Sight".[42] Molly Eichel from The A.V. Club gave the series a C+ rating, saying that "While the plot starts out cut and dried, it becomes more twisty and turny in a way that will eventually bring the audience back to the opening scene of a makeup-less, de-glammed Santos confessing her sins into a camera".[43] Matt Zoller Seitz of Vulture wrote that "Shades of Blue isn't a deep show, but it's a sensationally effective one. It knows what it is (a compacted, melodramatic, commercial TV-friendly gloss on one of those '70s and '80s Sidney Lumet police-corruption thrillers) and it rarely steps wrong."[44]
