I like British series especially crime. This series is supposed to be about a Inspector Morse when he was young.
This series is made in 2013. There is so much smoking in it and Morse seems to start drinking like in the older Inspector Morse. There is a lot of music in the background, mostly classical I think to show that Morse was not just a cop that drank to much but someone that has so called upper class taste in music. The music is loud, and like the few other episodes is just to much. It takes away from what is happening on the in the storyline which is already complicated and hard to understand.
When at the end they try to bring the conclusion and the reasons for the crime and the people that are guilty, Endeavor talks to much. He goes on and on for us to understand. In the Poirot and Miss Marple series they do something similar but it is simple to understand. Endeavor's details are dragged out mentioning details we never knew but are supposed to understand.
So the acting is good by Shaw Evans as Endeavor and his boss Roger Allam as DI Fred Thursday don't like the overacting and shouting by Anton Lesser-Chief Bright. He also played in Garrow's Law.
I don't know if I will continue to watch this series unless they change the format, lower the music and make it less complicated to understand.
