Boomtown
http://www.imdb.com/board/10319960/reference
, from 2002, was a great cop show, which didn't get many viewers. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who likes
Southland
.

Some people on the 19-2 board think it's similar. I can see it too.
19-2 is a Canadian cop show, based on a French Canadian show by the same name. It focuses more on characters than cop work. It's also very adult and very disturbing at times. I think there are too many sex scenes that are too graphic, but I keep watching, because some episodes arewow.

Another vote for 19-2. Similar but in a Canuk way. I don't think many things on film or TV are in the same league as Southland. The Wire is but I find the acting much better in Southland.

I'm surprised no one mentioned The Wire. I though aspects of it were similar.

I did. The Wire was not clichd and a million times better.

I didn't expect to like this show as much as I do, and now I'm on the last season. Any recommendations to other shows like this?

Boomtown was somewhat similar and quite good. But I think it was cancelled after the 2nd season.
I like the Canadian show 19-2. But other than portraying the day-to-day life of Police Officers it's not really very similar.
But you should check out the movies End of Watch and Street Kings if you havent seen them.

I agree regarding
Boomtown
. In fact, I liked it betterat least the first season. It's a shame it didn't catch on.
