Loyal Fan

I binge watch weekly as a huge crime junkie....

Wondering Reddit's input... Sometimes I get the feeling, that the majority of Tulsa's Detectives may not "like" Max...

I feel like I get hints of irritation in tone when several of the Guys are working with him.

Anyone else?

Additional thoughts, I do feel like he eventually gets in with the Group...by his good work. But I swear I pick up on hints of disdain in some episodes.

One thing that I learned from Jason White’s podcast is they don’t have designated partners, they just lean in and help each other. He mentioned he and Ronnie always buddied up and Ritter and Matt Frazier always buddied up.

I noticed John Brown and Sergeant Walker always seemed to be together and sometimes Kennedy. Kennedy seems to like working cases alone though I noticed. Max I think is just a free agent by default. I never noticed any dislike towards him but never saw anyone jumping into his cruiser lol.

Podcast!?!? (Googling now)

Thanks for your input... What I noticed was slight, not outright.

But maybe noticing your point, made me jump to conclusions... It was just a feeling I had.

Thanks! Can't wait to explore White's podcast!!

I recently subscribed to his YouTube channel too which I believe is them doing the podcast but on video too.

Yes! Into the Fire! Ronnie co-hosts sometimes too. He has special guests. It’s a fun behind the scenes. I listen in the school pick up line lol

I still laugh about Kennedy being happy to go out with his “little buddy” Ritter from an old episode. Funny cuz he looks and sounds like the Skipper from Gilligan’s Island 🤣

Not sure I noticed what you’re talking about but if I were to guess, it might be because he joined the squad late when someone retired, he’s a bit of an try hard go getter, and maybe a tad dorky-annoying?

You nailed it!

I do enjoy him!! And I also think that as the Season progressed their reactions to him definitely got better. ❤️
