You can replay it as many times as you want on Hulu...

Instead of watching broadcast/satellite/cable TV, where some programming committee in NY or LA decides what they're going to show you all day long, which may not be what you want to watch, you can instead just use streaming services that let you decide what to watch.

It's based on the real-world CRASH gang unit from the LAPD Rampart Division in the late 1990s, which ended up being disbanded in 2000 after their corruption was exposed, with dozens of LAPD officers implicated in associated crimes and misconduct.

But rather loosely based.

If you want a more accurate series depicting fictional but realistic cops tackling gangs and drugs in the inner city, check out The Wire. (Which is available for streaming on Max, or you can add a Max subscription onto your Hulu subscription as well, if you don't want to manage more than one separate streaming service account at a time.)

Or you just buy it, because you'll end up rewatching The Wire a dozen times.
