It is sweet and funny
The main "star" of this series is the people who live in the town. They are all so much fun, and decent. We just end up wanting to live there.The Constable, Hamish Macbeth, is sort of like Andy Griffith. The show doesn't revolve around him even though ostensibly he is the main character.
The writing is superb. Understated, wise, and funny. Macbeth maintains "law and order" in a wise, but unusual fashion. He doesn't sweat the small stuff.
Apparently the series does not follow the books very well, but we can't think of a reason why that should matter. Maybe the books were great.
But the series is nothing short of delightful.
score 10/10
