In what they are trying to pass for comedy- the lady DS, vain, over dressed but goo hearted, has a styck. As does the dullard, but "cute", likable lower dectective- how could he get hired? they over play. It's not that clever- but they get "B" for consistency.
The premise that DI's wife walked off 3 years ago, no cell phone, wallet, passport, clothes, is somewhere out there, really..... she coul reappear at any momnt. really....
I am having a problem with the ages. The DS is a former girlfriend, they make a fuss thaat she had a nose job, she is one of the few thai looks like her nose. the DI has a daugheter looks 18, but let's say she is 16, played as a young woman. So the DI met and married Lynne, the disapperred wife, right after their break up- and has this child- they mention the DS had just entered the force so- 19-20. met marry, have a child- 20 years, she'd really have to be 40, lets. say 38, that's pushing the numbers. she look 30-35. not 40+.
Iy's hard to do light ocmedy when you have murders that means you have to ignore the gravity or the creulty of the crime. but htis is a ight hearted comedy.
Again, not the worst- an there are so many really bad shows, with nothing entertaining that get renewe. what's wrong with this show is wrong with many. it's clear from the last episode, they were planning for another season. and probalby had the story lines.
