All Five Seasons of One of the Best Crime Dramas You’ve Never Seen Just Arrived on Netflix

Despite running for five seasons on NBC and TNT between 2009 and 2013, the crime drama Southland never quite found the large audience it deserved. Now, all five seasons and 43 episodes are available on Netflix, hoping to reach a wider viewership. Created by Ann Biderman, the show follows the challenging lives of experienced detectives and patrol officers with the Los Angeles Police Department. It stars Michael Cudlitz as seasoned officer John Cooper, who mentors rookie Ben Sherman (Ben McKenzie), alongside fellow detectives Lydia Adams (Regina King) and Sammy Bryant (Shawn Hatosy).
