The show tackles timely social issues, focusing on mental health and the complex relationship between law enforcement and the Black community. “As far as mental health, that’s a huge thing,” Hodge emphasized, especially in the bond between Cross and his close friend Sampson. He added, “The reason it’s in the show is because it’s what’s normal and natural for us.” Hodge shared that these themes come from real conversations with showrunner Ben Watkins, who urged the cast to infuse their personal experiences into their characters.
