The Orville (2017)
Language
The 3rd season is good, but though I normally overlook profanity, I don't like the extremely frequent use of religious expletives GD and JC. It demeans the show. I find it offensive, unnecessary, and unimaginative, especially because this seems to be the only expression of frustration the writing produces and even if it is not offensive to the viewer, the use is overkill and seems to be an obvious attempt of some kind of deliberate tactic to prove something. Poor form.
Lewis (2006)
Only One Complaint: It's Over!!
Just binged the whole series with my husband over the past few weeks and to my surprise I'm sitting here a little tearful that it's over. I will miss these characters deeply. Once in a while I get really attached-such a well-produced and classic body of work. I want more! I love British police procedurals and this one is a cut above. Really hoping there'll be an Inspector Hathaway series; it's been 6 years already. But you never know-Brits don't get in a hurry. Whately and Fox are an unbeatable team that don't disappoint. Plot lines are cerebral, challenging because they aren't easily solved, unlike so much vapidly predictable American programming (I am American). The supporting cast is strong and also very well-developed. Clare Holman is a delight. The costume designer captured the personalities well, and I particularly appreciated that both Holman and Front were brought forward as intelligent, sexy and confident middle-aged women. Hathaway's costuming portrayed him as a hipster, which gave him high sex appeal-nothing like an extremely educated and well-appointed stoic with a playful dry wit to compliment Lewis' old school (albeit slightly disheveled) charm and transparent integrity. Unlike the rest, the first episode was a bit slow, so persevere-you won't be disappointed!
