Positives: Set, props, clothing, locations.
Negatives:
Immediately struck me as an unimaginative, really unreal Sherlock/Holmes knockoff. The sleuthing throughout our two crimes seemed more writer's imagination than a realistic portrayal of observation & problem solving. Formula subplot #1 was the all-too-often dissonance between our detective & his dept. cohorts (an often used cheap tension subplot hook). Formula subplot #2 was a shaky romance to provide additional tension.
Actor selection (based on looks?) was poor; acting & dialogue - not inspiring, just tepidly bland. Crime scenes seemed very staged - bodies w/a spattering of not-real blood; lying in some posed position. Misdirections too obvious.
