Fox programmers seem determined to drag viewers back a few decades.
First there was “Human Target,” a generic action-adventure that would have been at home airing after “The Incredible Hulk,” and now there’s the comedy-drama “The Good Guys,” a series about a cop whose comfort with all things modern ended in the mid-1980s.
“The Good Guys” (8 p.m. Wednesday) has its mild charms, but nothing about its characters is believable.
The show does give more character development to the bad guys than most series do, but these antagonists are cartoons compared with the more sophisticated baddies on FX’s “Justified.”
“The Good Guys” is OK if all you seek from TV is bland, comfortable entertainment.
