Dead Still (2020)
Original, slightly odd, and compelling
I like this show! (If I could, I'd give it an 8.5) The premise is original and macabre, without veering into creepy. Each episode tells a concise story that's embedded within a larger unfolding story - so that at the end of 40 minutes you feel closure along with a sense of anticipation. The female character may be a bit anachronistic, but she's got moxie and she adds depth and color, literally - her blues really pop! Can't wait to see how the characters develop.
Shakespeare & Hathaway: Private Investigators (2018)
Very good!
I watch a lot of mystery series and this one is very good. Ok, a couple of the mysteries were a little goofy or figure-out-able in the first few minutes, but more often than not, they keep you along for the ride. The rapport between the two leads is palpable. And Sebastian is a hoot! In the last episodes of Season 2 a number of the other supporting characters are fleshed out too (Lu's mom, DI Marlow. etc.) as is the backstory of Hathaway's "early retirement." I look forward to many more seasons of S + H!!!
