Southland · Season 1

A raw and authentic look into a Los Angeles police unit. From the beaches of Malibu to the streets of East L.A., go inside the lives of cops, criminals, victims and their families. John Cooper is a seasoned Los Angeles cop assigned to train young rookie Ben Sherman. And although Cooper's harsh, tell-it-like-it-is approach often leaves Ben questioning whether he has what it takes to be a cop, he remains on the force.
