What to Know

Critics Consensus

On Call is an undemanding patrol thanks to its half-hour format, but the shorter runtime is about the only new novelty it brings to the cop drama genre.

Eric Deggans NPR Perhaps the most creatively ambitious project Law & Order creator Dick Wolf's production company Wolf Entertainment has tackled in a while. Jun 7, 2025 Full Review Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) The show is trying to be sharp and immediate, using 30-minute episodes and body camera footage, but it ends up having little to say about the dynamic between the officers or wider policing issues. Jan 23, 2025 Full Review Margaret Lyons New York Times Its eight episodes are largely serialized and have the tense velocity that is the raison d’être for cop shows in the first place. Jan 15, 2025 Full Review Abhishek Srivastava The Times of India ...the show juggles so many minor crime cases that the central narrative...gets sidelined. Rated: 3.5/5 Jan 31, 2025 Full Review Dustin Rowles Pajiba With ugly cinematography, bad writing, and generic acting, On Call comes off like a Prime Video cop show that graduated from the Netflix school of algorithm-driven slop. Jan 24, 2025 Full Review Tatat Bunnag Bangkok Post On Call offers enough moral ambiguity to make its characters intriguing and complex. While it may not be groundbreaking, it presents a grim, gripping portrayal of the harsh realities of urban life and the officers sworn to protect it. Jan 17, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Alexa R Best cop show I have seen, I hope they renew for season 2. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/13/25 Full Review Anthony C I’m not really a fan of cop shows. Just not my thing. So when my wife asked me if I wanted to start this new cop show with her I was a little hesitant but then I noticed the show was only 30min. In my head I was like ok I’ll make my wife happy watch the show and I’ll only miss 30min of the Yankee game. To my surprise I was hooked. Great show and only 30min! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/06/25 Full Review Julian J It felt more captivating than your average police TV show, like it wasn't full of time wasting fillers. The cinematography was really well done too. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/04/25 Full Review Yung S. Best series ever please bring it back ASAAP !!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/12/25 Full Review Christina S One of the best cop shows out there. Was waiting for season 2, just looked and it was not renewed. Hopefully, it's picked up by peacock. So disappointed though that they keep canceling good shows. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/27/25 Full Review Bruno V O nicho de séries policiais já saturou. Mas , essa é uma versão melhorada the rokkie, capaz de mexer com o público alvo. É despótico, e tão real. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/26/25 Full Review Read all reviews
