New, Extended Trailer for Copper

BBC America has released a new, extended trailer, about 90 seconds in length with brief behind-the-scenes footage, for its new crime drama Copper.

In 1864, he was New York's finest. Tom Weston-Jones stars as Kevin Corcoran, an intense, rugged Irish-immigrant cop working the city's notorious Five Points neighborhood. Corcoran is struggling to maintain his moral compass in a turbulent world while on an emotional and relentless quest to learn the truth about the disappearance of his wife and the death of his daughter.

We're liking the look of this show, though we're a bit iffy on Weston-Jones as the lead … and can't quite put our finger on just what it is that doesn't resonate with us. Maybe it's the hat. Hmm … definitely the hat.

Copper premieres on BBC America on August 19th at 10 PM (ET/PT).
