DCI Banks (2010)

I agree with some of the criticism here, but found the series got better after the first couple seasons. It was worth sticking with it!
One of many British crime shows I've watched. Not among the best, but acceptable.
For the first seasons I would still enjoy the mysteries -- but just have to gloss over the parts where dialog seemed stilted, or cops made seemingly stupid moves. In later series there was less of that, although DCI Banks himself would still tend to go a bit rogue. I would be asking, "With his conflict of interest in this case, would they still let him lead the investigation?"
The very last episode of the series was a little unsatisfying though, with people just confessing out of the blue when confronted by Banks.
