Golden Boy is an American crime drama series created by Nicholas Wootton, which is produced by Berlanti Television and Warner Bros. Television. CBS placed a series order on May 13, 2012. The series ran on CBS from February 26 to May 14, 2013 and aired Tuesdays at 10:00 pm ET.
On May 10, 2013, CBS canceled the series after one season.
The series follows the successful, meteoric rise—from age 27 to 34—of Walter Clark, an ambitious cop who becomes the youngest Police Commissioner in New York City history.
Now: Clark, of humble origins and living with a troubled sister, becomes a hero by killing two assailants and saving the life of his partner, who was shot in the process. He is told that he can have an assignment of his choice and chooses the homicide task force, despite only having three years on the job (at least a decade less than everyone else on the task force). He works a murder case, obtaining evidence through improper means, to the chagrin of his new partner, veteran Don Owen. Clark learns that Arroyo, who at first is not particularly receptive to Clark but appears to change his ways, is out to sabotage his career.
Now: When Clark apprehends a young burglar, Natasha Radkovich, she leads them to a dead body. The detectives investigate the death of that young woman and the apparent kidnapping of her daughter. When they find the daughter, McKenzie comforts her by revealing that she has a deceased brother who was also a cop. Arroyo interrogates the burglar, assaulting her in the process; he then forces her to wear a wire and plead for Clark to give her money from evidence, which he does. Owen visits the grave of the informant that died as a result of Arroyo's actions.
Now: The detectives investigate a shooting that left one teen dead and one wounded; while investigating, Owen defuses a mob outside the apartment. Evidence initially points to a local gang leader who sells weapons illegally, but Clark, while canvassing the building, discovers evidence that implicates the mother of one of the victims. Meanwhile, Arroyo tries to blackmail Clark with Clark's conversation with Natasha in "The Price of Revenge."
Now: A police officer is killed while moonlighting for a rap mogul; Clark threatens to reveal Arroyo's relationship with McKenzie. Arroyo must decide whether or not to work with Clark and Owen against his former mentor.
Now: Clark and Owen delve into the murder of the wealthy daughter-in-law of a shipping mogul, Marvin Drexler. Nora needs Clark's help with the loan shark who's after her.
