‘The Good Guys’ (9PM, Fox)
Until Tom Selleck returns to primetime next season on CBS’ cop drama ‘Blue Bloods,’ we have to give it up to Bradley Whitford’s ‘Good Guys’ moustache for the Best Supporting Performance by Facial Hair in a Drama Series. Really, look at that thing … it’s truly Selleck-worthy. Meanwhile, there’s much to love elsewhere about this quirky new series (which actually falls more in the dramedy category), concocted by ‘Burn Notice’ creator Matt Nix. Whitford’s Dan Stark was once a great cop … in the ’80s, a decade he can’t seem to let go of, from the ’stache and his wardrobe to his drinking and his love of his Trans Am. But now he’s partnered up with the by-the-book Jack Bailey (Colin Hanks), who embraces modern police techniques and desperately wants a promotion. Jack’s more, um, laidback approach means the duo is forced to compromise , as in tonight’s case, in which the partners have to come up with their own sting operation to bring down a ring of vintage car thieves when their boss refuses to give them access to police department vehicle to bring down the baddies.
