On October 25, 2017, it was reported that a television series spinoff of the Bad Boys films featuring the character Sydney "Syd" Burnett from Bad Boys II was in development. The pilot was set to be written by Brandon Margolis and Brandon Sonnier. Executive producers were expected to include Margolis, Sonnier, Jerry Bruckheimer, Jonathan Littman, KristieAnne Reed, Jeff Gaspin, and Jeff Morrone. Production companies involved with the series were set to include Sony Pictures Television, Jerry Bruckheimer Television, and 2.0 Entertainment.[6]

On October 31, 2017, it was announced that NBC had given the production a pilot production commitment following a competitive situation where multiple networks had pursued the potential series.[7] On January 18, 2018, it was announced that NBC had given the production an official drama pilot order.[8] On February 2, 2018, it was reported that Anton Cropper would direct the pilot episode.[9] On April 12, 2018, it was announced that the previously untitled pilot had been titled L.A.'s Finest.[10] On May 11, 2018, it was reported that NBC had passed on the pilot and declined to pick up the production to series. The producers of the series were expected to shop the production to other networks.[11]

On May 17, 2018, it was announced that Sony Pictures Television was in preliminary discussions with Charter Communications regarding a deal to pick up the series.[12] By the end of the month, the talks had progressed to the point of serious negotiations.[13] On June 26, 2018, it was announced that Charter Communications had given the production a series order for a first season consisting of thirteen episodes.[14][15][16][17] On February 7, 2019, it was announced during the Television Critics Association's annual winter press tour that the series would premiere on May 13, 2019 with the release of the first three episodes.

The theme music for the series was composed by Laura Karpman.[20]

On June 13, 2019, the series was renewed for a second season which was originally set to premiere on June 8, 2020,[21][22][23] but on that date it was announced it had been pushed to "as-yet-[un]specified" date later in the year, in response to ongoing protests over police brutality.[24] In August 2020, it was announced that the series would now premiere all thirteen episodes on September 9, 2020.[25] On October 14, 2020, Spectrum canceled the series after two seasons.[2]

Alongside the initial series development announcement, it was confirmed that Gabrielle Union would star in the series, reprising her role of Sydney "Syd" Burnett from the film Bad Boys II.[6] On January 29, 2018, it was announced that Ernie Hudson had been cast in a series regular role.[26] On February 15, 2018, it was reported that Zach Gilford and Duane Martin had joined the main cast.[27] In March 2018, it was announced that Jessica Alba, Ryan McPartlin, and Zach McGowan had been cast as series regulars.[28][29][30] In September 2018, it was reported that Sophie Reynolds had been cast in a series regular role and that Barry Sloane would appear in a recurring capacity.[31][32] In October 2018, David Fumero and Jordan Rodrigues joined the series in recurring roles.[33] On January 11, 2019, it was announced that Jake Busey had joined the cast in a recurring role.[34]

Filming[edit]

Principal photography for the pilot began in early April 2018 in Los Angeles, California.[35]

On February 21, 2019, executive producer and showrunner Brandon Sonnier was seriously injured during the shooting of a car stunt at the Port of Los Angeles when the vehicle accidentally crashed into the video village area of the set, which led to a partial amputation on his right leg. Brandon Margolis sustained minor injuries.[36][37]

In June 2019, Spectrum Originals renewed the series for a second season, which premiered on September 9, 2020.

In May 2020, Fox acquired the broadcast rights for the series' first season to fill in primetime broadcast hours due to production suspensions during the COVID-19 pandemic and premiered on September 21, 2020.[1][38]

Reception[edit]

Critical response[edit]

On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the series holds an approval rating of 24% based on 17 reviews, with an average rating of 4.56/10.
