BY JACQUELINE CUTLER All too often, the neighborhoods that need police the most are those where residents trust cops the least. It's a tough situation for those who live there and for those trying to patrol the streets. CBS' latest drama, "NYC 22," premiering Sunday, April 15, has that delicate relationship as an undercurrent. Though those involved with a show are always quick to dismiss the notion that it's anything we have seen before, this is a procedural cop show, albeit one with excellent credentials: Robert De Niro and Jane Rosenthal are executive producers, and Richard Price created it.

It opens plots revolving around those who think that because they can afford to buy a great old brownstone in Harlem, they're now princes of the city, and how those who have lived uptown forever don't always welcome the newcomers. the rookies on their first shift. It's a miracle some of them weren't immediately killed. For allegedly smart, trained professionals, they make some pretty boneheaded moves. Jennifer "White House" Perry (Leelee Sobieski, "The Wicker Man") is, in the actress's words, "one tough cookie." She was an MP in the Marines in Iraq, a college volleyball star, and seems completely capable of taking down any perp. "She has a rich back story," Sobieski says.
