Well written book transferred into a well written script.

Just an amazing well written script with one hell of plot it is just clear to me now that mostly when there is a best selling book already there the screen play will be definitely high rated movie/series.

So things started so mysteriously out of the blue unusual crimes connecting unusual people which will make things go berserk in a really good way, it was all focused on the Holistic people looking at things in a Holistic and "all is connected" and to be honest i kinda got lost in the beginning but things got clearer and clearer with every episode until this one where it all have been unraveled and it was all revolving around Lydia Spring and her father the creator of this mess from a hundred years ago.

The cast was really good, first time "meeting" Samuel Barnett but damn he was really into his role like he was born just for it , as for Elijah Wood ,, bravo .. keeping up with his nervously worrying character back from lord of the rings to lately i'v watched Wilfred i mean just you can't feel bored with his face being so tense with Dirk unintentionally bugging him around. Also not forgetting all of the other characters from Farah Black to Amanda to the hilarious Miguel Sandoval as Colonel Scott Riggins to sadly "killed" .. "hope not" Neil Brown Jr. As Estevez.

Finally for the next season and after seeing that things are far from over and with this weird yet applaudable cooperation between Netflix and BBC i do expect another great season and might go on the list of nominees for the Emmay's next year. So keep it up guys.

Well, it finished as it started; what on earth is going on? Yes, it was crazy, confusing and full of answers. And with several twists, it is well set up for season 2. Man this story in out there!

It's all happening at the Zoo

Warning: Spoilers
At the Zoo is the abandoned Animal Transfer Unit, where the as the Yanks are fond to say in detective type denouements, everything is about to go down.

The Rowdy 3 with Amanda Brotzman as their passenger, arrives on the scene and discovered the carnage.

Dirk Gently and Tod Brotzman have been attacked with spear guns, Gordon Rimmer arrived hotly pursued by Police Detective Estavez. Farah Black arrives and is engaged in a Mexican standoff with the Detective, for whom recent events have left his marbles somewhat scattered to say the least.

Bart Curlish and Ken remain hold up in their hotel room, where Bart relished the ephemeral delights of TV advertising, while she desperately endeavours to recuperate after her her unexpected injuries.

Dirk Gently Holistic Detective Agency is officially inaugurated, with Dirk Gently still behaving as somewhat of a dipstick, towards his admitted partner Tod Brotzman, with a little help from their new sleeping partner Farah Black.

Black Wing was the special operations unit inaugurated by the Central Intelligence Agency, to examine and study as of Guinea pigs a group, of people with extra special psychic abilities, in order so they could harness these for the Agency's nefarious ends.

But a new CIA agent named Wilson has been promoted, to as the Agency see it sort out Black Wing once and for all. Wilson has decided that Agent Colonel Scott Riggins, has become unreliable and has replaced him, with his far more gung-ho former partner Sergeant Hugo Friedkin.
