Alert: Missing Persons Unit (2023– )

Great to see Scott Caan and a diverse cast

[8/10 · 19 January 2023]

I enjoy the show. Not sure what other people are watching. It's got interpersonal family drama of an ex (Scott Caan) working for his ex-wife (Dania Ramirez) as boss-their son having been one of their missing cases-that gives it some extra heart, but this is about a team of people who have real passion for finding missing people and reuniting families, and I think it's very promising. So far I have enjoyed every episode. There's a subplot with Mike (Ryan Broussard) who is Nikki's new love interest that makes complications between exes. Keri (Adela Role) is a character who seems to use traditional African beliefs in her work toward solving cases. Hemingway (Peter Gibson) deals with a father slipping away deep into dimentia. So for him, finding the missing, is personal because "the one person I want to find I can't reach." Interesting backstories and set up. A solid cast. Look forward to more.
