Season one is practically a giveaway. Three seasons require you to give your firstborn.
It is a good formula detective mystery series. To add some spice to the series, our lead detective, Harry (James Nesbitt), has been victimized by being shackled with an ancient Chinese bracelet that brings him luck and more, whether he likes it or not.
You will constantly ask yourself, “What would I do in that situation?” There is plenty of time to kibitz and say “Stay in the car!”
The series is the standard chase scenes, shoot-outs, drugs, and women, and is peppered with humor.
Each episode has its problems that are cleaned up in one or a few consecutive episodes. Series three may have lost its sparkle.
There is a long-term question that is only solved at the end of the third series. And of course, the standard option is open for a fourth season that is never coming. Do not worry, as all loose ends are tied up.
