Jonathan Lee (Jon Foo) is a no-nonsense kung fu fighting cop from Hong Kong. His sister Kim is eager to prove herself to him. She gets an assignment and assumed killed by a Chinese gang while guarding a transport to LA. Jonathan is partnered with fast-talking irreverent LAPD detective James Carter (Justin Hires) on the case. Kim reveals that she was actually part of the gang. Jonathan and James continue the team. Didi Diaz (Aimee Garcia) is a fellow detective. Gerald Page (Page Kennedy) is James' low-life criminal informant and cousin. Their boss Captain Lindsay Cole (Wendie Malick) discovers that Kim is actually working undercover to bring down the gang.
This show has 13 episodes and canceled after 7 although the writing was on the wall before the pilot aired. Copying from a movie has not been a terribly successful strategy. Justin Hires is a functional fast-talking black guy. He's essentially a lesser but workable copy. Jon Foo is a few step down. He is stiff and Jackie Chan is not stiff. That keeps the chemistry lackluster. Over time, they are able to build up to a functional TV police procedural with some minor chemistry. However, it runs out of time before it could find its feet.
