What a show

After reading everyone's comments, I felt the need to add my own. This is one of my all time favorite shows. I explained to my mother why she didn't "get" British television. She watched an episode of Cracker with me and just didn't get it. My explanation: Unlike most American shows, you have to pay attention to British shows. They require the use of your brain. I love the character of Fitz and doubt anyone but Robbie Coltrane could have done the role justice. Most American TV is crap. I read a lot, usually with the TV playing in the background and have no trouble keeping up with whatever drivel is on. When one of the inspectors was killed on the show, I felt as if I'd lost a friend. How I long for the days when A&E broadcast decent shows like this one. This was one of the first series I purchased on DVD. I only wish there were more.
