Thread: Netflix Police Documentary: "Flint Town"

    I watched the first couple of episodes last night and I’m hooked. That’s a completely different environment from where I work and I’m fascinated. I will be watching the entire series.

    I enjoyed it. It was like watching a real life version of The Wire. Corruption, broke city, worn out burned out cops, murder, broke down police cars, internal politics, chiefs getting fired, people not getting promotions they thought they were getting.

    The armed citizen patrol was interesting. Here it's just unarmed old people driving around with flashlights and hi viz vests.

    Very interesting, Flint turned into a shit hole when GM fell, and will never be the same. I am really surprised they are even able to staff a PD. My utmost respect to all officers, but why would anyone ever want to sign up?

    Started watching this little by little last week or so, and have been enjoying it for sure. I grew up in East Lansing, and spent time in Flint throughout the '80's-90's for swim meets, and don't remember it as what it is today. For the most part, from what I can see through the show, the officers who are featured seem like good folks who care about the job and doing it right...which is surprising in a way given the other circumstances (understaffed, lower pay, worse area, etc). Good show.

    Based on advice from PF members, watched Episodes 1 and 2 last night. Excellent! Will certainly watch all of it. And I had just finished watching all three seasons of Narcos on NetFlix. Great stuff!! Any future viewing recommendations will be appreciated.
