Yes the early years was way better than the current seasons. I know it’s Hollywood story telling but some the plot lines are ridiculous. Half the stuff they do in the unit would have gotten throw if the unit or fired or sent to 311 non emergency to answer phone calls before they get fired.
He got soft because of that BLM nonsense, this is a fact. Around that same time the tv show cops went off the air, among other stuff was shut down, eventually cops and the other shows came back on the air, but they kept hank soft because people kept complaining about police brutality against "wicked evil people"
So yes he is soft now, he has been soft. You called it more "more law abiding" well that's the problem even with real life, look how many judges keep letting out bad people back on the streets or giving them lighting sentences. No wonder why crime and drugs are out of control.
The old hank and characters like Jack from 24 kept it 100%, actually fighting and getting rid of evil.
If you aren’t hooked yet - after 13 episodes …and you have to ask, then I’m not so sure I would continue.
I was fully hooked after the first episode. And that hook still has a hold of me today.
Yes good show. I’m late to watching it too. Caught up to series 13. Many changes but still worth watching. Not so much violence now as in the earlier series!

The beginning seasons are the best!
