It took me half a season but I finally got into Bosch on Amazon. It is actually really good. A little cheesy at times, and some of the casting is questionable, but it is nice to see some familiar faces from The Wire and Justified. Recommend for fans of SOA and the The Shield.
Oh! Whoah! sO!a and The Shield and The Wire and Justified!!
Ok now, gotta try it.
Fair warning - it starts slow!
OK. I watched the first season of Bosch. I didn’t like it and I’ll say why below, but when you say start slow do you mean upcoming season gets better in character development or plotting? Did they get new writers?
I’m sorry to be such a wet blanket but I found this show to be predictable like network TV is predictable. I did not find the characters interesting, it Is a typical renegade cop doing good show. Note that Bosch only kills the bad guys in season one, There is nothing especially interesting about Bosch Even though they try to give him a backstory —prostitute mom—it aint all that.
When Season One opened in The Shield we knew right away that Vic Mackey was a bad guy with a gun who often did good things. He stole millions of dollars. He killed good people. The Shield’s characterization and plotting and everything about it was top notch. I love The Shield and I don’t watch cop shows, but that and The Wire transcended their genre.
So sorry, now I am back to searching for dramas I like. I’m finishing Ozark which I find decent.
