Mike McNeil (Denis Leary) is a self-medicating, hard-drinking, decorated New York City detective whose toughest assignment is himself. His unconventional approach to fighting crime makes him a great cop, but it takes a toll on his personal life, which is complicated by his wife, his girlfriend and a squad room full of unique characters. The critically acclaimed series, created by star Denis Leary (Rescue Me) and co-creator Peter Tolan, was shot single-camera on location in New York City.

The Job, a DreamWorks Television production for Touchstone Television, aired on ABC for two seasons of 19 episodes from 2001-2002.
