Suspect has an unusual format with 30m episodes that are essentially two handers between detective Danny, (James Nesbitt) and a different character each week that he believes will bring him closer to the murderer.
Its a straight remake of a 2019 Danish Noir,' Forhoret' which had two seasons and it keeps the dark tone of the original.
On the positive side production values were good and a lovely score by Stefano Cabrera helped a lot. The major draw was the cast and the format allowed the big names the chance to show off their acting chops.
Unfortunately it was let down by the uninspired script, there were a lot of improbabilities in the story, (detective investigates his own daughter's murder?) some of the dialogue was downright odd and the two handers made it one-paced. Nor did we get to know the daughter except for brief and often inaudible flashbacks. I watched four and gave up.
