Bosch started out as a very good based-on-the-books crime drama. The performances, the filming, the character development was all first rate - unfortunately, that only lasted for the first few seasons, and then (as others have mentioned) with the introduction of the daughter into more of the plot-lines, it just went into a slump.
Season 7 was a very disappointing finale. Nothing in it rang true, not Harry's obsessive desire to see justice done in the matter of arson fatalities, not the Lt's harassment case which seemed to be a plot that would have been more credible in the 70s than 2020, nothing at all that involved the daughter - nothing in the entire season seemed authentic, organic or believable; everything seemed rushed and sloppily developed. I did wonder whether the Covid situation put limitations on filming that might account for the season's shortcomings but the unfortunate end result, in my case, is that while it set Bosch up for a spinoff, I have no desire to invest my time in it.
