All the characters in Live could stand on their own. Loved every part of this show from the old men to the young rookies. There was so much emotion, adrenaline, excitement in each episode. I truly had a great time with this show. After a while, you start feeling like you're a part of the their family/team. You could feel the police officers' glory, their sacrifices, etc. I hope they make more seasons. This was a great watch. I don’t know what kind of genre this would fit under. It’s like a slice of life with action/suspense.
