Jaded November 8, 2018 Share November 8, 2018 Quote The stakes become personal for Atwater during Intelligence's investigation of a drug dealer suspected of homicide. While the Chicago Police Department works to take down a drug lord, Atwater faces a difficult decision between doing what's necessary in order to solve a young dealer's murder and doing what's ultimately best for the community.

mommalib November 15, 2018 Share November 15, 2018 (edited) Damn they put my man Atwater through it. Such a good dude with a big heart and that chick laid one hell of a guilt trip on him. Being black and being a cop that can be a hell of an internal conflict. I hope his decision at the end doesn't come back to haunt him. They finally give Atwater a lover interest and this is the outcome? lol Edited November 15, 2018 by mommalib 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/75736-s06e08-black-and-blue/#findComment-4835556

doLLish November 15, 2018 Share November 15, 2018 Every Atwater centric episode has been excellent and this was no exception. He had amazing chemistry with that actress and I feel it was totally wasted by making her a one off. She really would have made a good cop some day. It would have been nice to see her dating Kevin, going through cop school, etc. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/75736-s06e08-black-and-blue/#findComment-4835848
Chas411 November 15, 2018 Share November 15, 2018 It's probably for the best she didn't stick around - she'd only end up as the close relative victim in the next one Chicago crossover. 1 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/75736-s06e08-black-and-blue/#findComment-4835912

I'm choosing to believe it's because Atwater has a spine and the ability to deal, while Jay and Adam are whiney wimps who can't walk across the street with out having a crisis. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/75736-s06e08-black-and-blue/#findComment-4851594

Even if that's the case the end result is less screentime for Atwater and another member o the team... He barely speaks to Jay or Antonio.. Even less to upton... Other than the episode with the ride along him and Kim haven't had many heart to hearts.. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/75736-s06e08-black-and-blue/#findComment-4851669
TigerLynx November 17, 2018 Share November 17, 2018 I wish Atwater would get more screen time, but I am glad the writers haven't taken him down Jay, Adam, or Voight's paths. Atwater throwing the gun in the river is completely different than committing cold blooded murder like Voight has. He may regret it at some point, but Atwater is still a better man than the idiots he works with. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/75736-s06e08-black-and-blue/#findComment-4852536

WinJet0819 November 20, 2018 Share November 20, 2018 All the Atwater-centric episodes are always so good, and showcases a great character. It amazes me how little screen time he gets. He should have more of a part of most of the episodes. Instead, they want to constantly show the stupid Upton-Ruzek relationship, or focus on Jay or Antonio all the time. LaRoyce Hawkins can act, and he deserves to be able to showcase it more, instead of just being a footnote, or a token undercover because he's black. I hope Atwater takes his detective exam. 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/75736-s06e08-black-and-blue/#findComment-4859746

I agree...also Paddy can act and deserves more than having Ruzek dragged down by relationship drama and that half assed Woods storyline that was randomly dropped in favour of the 'let's kill Al' storyline. Take me back to the early 'Ruzwater' times, those two played so well off each other and were a well balanced partnership, it was a great bromance. Prison Ball, the Ruzwater UC in prison episode is still one the of the best episodes they've done. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/75736-s06e08-black-and-blue/#findComment-4860075
langford peel November 20, 2018 Share November 20, 2018 You who Kevin is in this show? Hoss Cartwright. Think about it. The gentle giant who is always in good humor who could squash you like a bug if he got pissed off. He is often overlooked and gets more than his share of the crap because of his good nature. Plus whenever he gets a love interest in an episode something happens to her so they can’t be together. I am really gonna be freaked out if his next lady friend gets killed in a tragic buggy accident or gets run over by a horse. Nothing is ever new in episodic television created by hacks like Dick Wolf. 1 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/75736-s06e08-black-and-blue/#findComment-4861065
