Lacey is an experienced detective whose high school track and field success turned her into a cop who can undoubtedly chase down the bad guys of L.A. Polished and straightforward, Lacey sounds like she should be a fun foil for Cagney.
Of course, Cagney and Lacey will be a drama and police procedural, so we may not want to expect too much fun.
As Cagney, Sarah Drew will be the more easygoing of the two women.
She’s nimble where her partner is athletic, and she sees Lacey as a mentor, which can only be a good thing.
