They're both crime dramas about corrupt cops. They both started in 2002, and they're both ending this year. Both have cops who are supposed to be the good guys but spend half their time doing shady shit, investigations that go way over everybody's heads, and enough paperwork to make you hate the government.

The problem is they set the bar too high now. This one is already in IMDb's top 5. If they make another one, how the hell do they top this? Who could even play the Joker after Heath?

The new film is set in the 1950s, when the sci-fi genre was very popular. Films featuring aliens and flying saucers were all the rage, and that included mainstream titles like War of the Worlds and even schlock like Plan 9 from Outer Space. Space age content is actually very fitting for the time period.
