Reviews of this film included the following:
"A throwback to an earlier era of cop shows when steel-edged realism was still novel and there was a thrill to watching terse, streetwise detectives on shows like ' Dragnet ' and ' Kojak ' cajole witnesses and browbeat suspects."
"A return to an earlier era of police series, when steely realism was new and captivating to watch the laconic and shrewd detectives in series like 'Dragnet' and 'Kojak' fool around witnesses and intimidate suspects."
"A too-conventional cop show"
"A too conventional police series"
'Detroit 1-8-7' […] does not succeed in offering a fresh take on a police drama, but thanks to some strong performances, particularly from Michael Imperioli […] as detective Louis Fitch, it's certainly watchable for viewers who are not tired of the genre.
“'Detroit 1-8-7' […] fails to convey a new perspective on the police drama; but thanks to some strong appearances, especially that of Michael Imperioli [...] as Detective Louis Fitch, he is definitely worth seeing for viewers who are not tired of the genre. "
