Boss is an eleven episode Japanese police procedural series that follows the exploits of Osawa Eriko (Yuki Amami), a 40-year-old police officer who returns to Japan after a 5 year hiatus in the U.S. and is appointed to the head of a new task force known as the Special Criminal Countermeasures Unit (SCCU).
NOTE: As this was filmed in Japan, none of the firearms are real and are various replicas standing in for their live-firing counterparts.
