''Boston's Finest
received generally favorable reviews, with a score of 75 on Metacritic. Allison Keene of The Hollywood Reporter'' notes that "fans of police procedurals will be drawn to the show's fly-on-the-wall feeling, with its engaging cases and easy flow of law enforcement lingo. Though Boston's Finest hints at the darkest corners of American street life, its real aim seems to be a showcase of local heroism."
The Boston Globe's Matthew Gilbert criticized the show for its lack of action, stating "''Boston's Finest'' may be too aimless and pointless to inspire loyal viewing. It can be a little dull over the long haul, perhaps because the action we see isn’t particularly interesting and the family lives of the cops are relatively incident-free." ==References==
