"Another New DC Flag"

Just the other night here in Your Nation's Capital, an off-duty cop shot and wounded a couple of people over in Southeast. Cripes, it's as if they get even worse when they go off-duty; what's the damn deal with THAT?
I don't know about anybody else in this town, but I didn't like living in the "Murder Capital" the FIRST time around.

NPR's Pop Culture Happy Hour watches Watchmen
We're Watching 'Watchmen'
Linda Holmes; Glen Weldon; Daisy Rosario; Soraya Nadia McDonald
Regina King plays Tulsa Police detective Sister Night in the new HBO series Watchmen.
HBO's series Watchmen is not strictly an adaptation of the landmark comic book series by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons — it's technically a sequel. It stars Regina King as an ex-cop in Tulsa Oklahoma who's not-so-secretly the masked vigilante Sister Night. It also stars Don Johnson and Tim Blake Nelson, alongside Jean Smart and a very odd Jeremy Irons, who are both playing characters from the comic. Showrunner Damon Lindelof has set the show within a big, weird world that keeps getting bigger and weirder, even as it seeks to comment on some very contemporary, real-world issues.
