Central Division is a police drama web series about detectives in the LAPD's downtown precinct (known as Central Division). The show premiered on July 20th, 2009.[1] Central Division was created by Aleem Hossain and stars Brian Silverman and Clay Wilcox.[2]

History

[edit]

A lack of gritty cop shows on television in 2009 inspired Hossain to create one on the internet. He had been a longtime fan of programs like Homicide: Life on the Streets, NYPD Blue, and The Shield.[3] Hossain wrote and directed all four episodes of Season 1, which were shot on June 27th, 2009 in Los Angeles.[4][5]

The first season of the show centers on Detective Alan Edwards (played by Brian Silverman) and Detective Frank Hodge (played by Clay Wilcox) of the LAPD's central division. After leaving an internal affairs interview the two detectives find a body in the trunk of their car and this sets off the major events of the first season.

Critical Reception

[edit]

Dauntless Media called Central Division "a series worth following"[6] with a "truly shocking twist."[7]
