A showy command performance by Kevin Bacon won't be taking City on a Hill to new heights. It's enough, however, to give Showtime another Ray Donovan in terms of watchable, serviceable, jut-jawed crime hours.

Other than the series's insistence on beating the viewer over the head about its setting, it's a solid Boston crime drama, at least based on the pilot.

The action in City on a Hill is staged competently enough, but it's nothing you haven't seen before in half a dozen or more premium cable shows. What makes City on a Hill go is the performances, especially those of Bacon and Hodge.

"City on a Hill" can get a little lost in the bureaucracy of what it's building, but those details are also what keep it grounded.

Considering the breadth of the series' narrative ambitions, as laid out by the premiere, there's a good chance that City on a Hill will find a way to dig deep and offer up the sort of character drama that may well make it a standout on Showtime.

Just as the main characters in City on a Hill fight against the status quo of corruption, Fontana, as a writer and producer, has fought just as diligently against the bland status quo of television.
