Always appreciate watching reruns of this fine crime mystery series. Every episode is very well written, but there's always the ubiquitous harpy scene with Inspector Lewis' harridan Chief Superintendent Jean Innocent (Rebecca Front) browbeating him with the usual vitriol. Sometimes these 90 seconds of senseless bullying catch me by surprise and I fail to push the Mute button fast enough. Every show regardless of the teleplay, eventually there she appears with the same meaningless dressing-down of Inspector Lewis doggedly pursuing the perp. Still better than tolerating the ABC shows that never fail to include the usual shouting matches that're supposed to mean "high" dramatic emphasis but only remind us how simply idiotic our network shows really are.
score 5/10
