What the world definitely DOESN’T need is another cop show. But when we saw this photo of Jennifer Lopez and Drea de Matteo filming their new series “Shades of Blue,” it brought back fond memories of the 80’s cop show “Cagney & Lacey.” (Sharon Gless and Tyne Daly starred) Somehow two FEMALE cops make the whole idea more interesting. Hopefully, the show will have female writers to make the characters plausible, and less like the plethora of male cop shows.

SANDRA BULLOCK AND MELISSA MCCARTHY: THE NEW CAGNEY & LACEY?


As sick as we are of cop movies, there’s one we’re kind of looking forward to. Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy have been cast in a cop buddy comedy to be directed by Paul Feig, who did Bridesmaids. It’s about an uptight FBI agent forced to work with an unconventional Boston cop. (We miss Cagney & Lacey!) We’re just hoping the movie isn’t ruined by too many of the same old male favorites – car chases, explosions, and shoot-outs.
