NBC’s *Line of Fire* follows the Hollingsworths, a Washington, D.C., family whose members work across several US law-enforcement agencies. The review finds the premise familiar but entertaining, combining procedural drama with dysfunctional-family conflicts and making the show distinctive through its deliberately overstuffed approach.

Hope Davis and Peter Krause lead the ensemble as a strained married couple working as a US Marshal and Secret Service agent, while their children serve in the FBI, Secret Service and Department of Justice. The reviewer praises the cast’s chemistry, especially Davis and Krause’s wary intimacy and Kat Cunning’s performance, though some storylines—including an affair involving the First Daughter—risk becoming implausible or irritating.
