Finished this yesterday, it really is the anti-holywood cop show, slow paced, well acted, little sensationalism, we have enjoyed every season and look forward to the spin off show.

I enjoyed the easter egg when they described La Mayorista as being like a Stringer Bell type character, then asked Jerry if he'd seen it (given he starred in it!) and replied, oh year I binged that!

Are those tats his or Bosch’s ? Pretty random
The tats are real and Titus Welliver has been collecting them for years. They left them uncovered as Bosch is supposed to have tattoos from his army days, plus they say that it would take an extra hour per day to cover them for filming, so they just leave them.

There's a big banner on the series title page on Amazon Prime saying FINAL SEASON.
Yes, final season of ‘Bosch’ but they are starting to produce ‘Bosch private detective’ soon, so it isn’t the end.

Totally agree. It’s superb. Looking forward to the spin off.

Just looked up the price of that valve amp Bosches house, £7,100 if it's the McIntosh MC275!! The speaker look quite tasty too.

Why is it that maverick, moody TV cops always love obscure Jazz or Blues..... you never get them loving Punk or Metal or even just boring middle of the road stuff like snow patrol.

I’m new to this but totally addicted / i haven’t slept or worked - nothing I’m just totally addicted to it.

Just finished series 4 which was far and away better than 1-3

No, but most of my ‘TV’ watching is done with decent quality earphones in, as I usually just have an hour or so a night watching stuff on my iPad while my wife watches something else, or late in the evening while she snoozes in bed and I don’t want to disturb her.

I find with earphones/headphones I can clearly understand everything I watch, but sometimes when I watch programs/films on the TV I sometimes struggle to understand all the words, as I find the speakers to be shockingly st on modern ultra-thin TV’s with microscopic speakers which face the rear wall instead of out the front, and no, I can’t be bothered with having soundbars and all that sort of paraphernalia under my TV’s.

When people can’t understand the speech on TV, it isn’t usually a volume problem, it’s a quality of sound problem.

probably saying the same thing - it's a mix problem. Too many programmes these days have incidental music too loud and sound effects overpowering speech

Started watching Bosch a few days ago. Finished it last night. Excellent stuff, as always - except for Maddie.....she's always annoyed me. Dunno why. She just does.
Anyway, looking forward to the spin off?....

Funny I thought that Maddie made the show, her relationship with her dad and how she grew through the series.
Bosch, Irving and Jimmy Robertson grated at times, all looked like they'd worked at the Ministry of silly walks.

Just finished. Brilliant, very much up to it’s usual standard. One moan. Irving. I cannot stand his mannerism, or they way he carries himself. He is most unconvincing.
Lance Reddick who plays Irving had a significant back injury which causes him to have limited movement. It can be seen all the way back to OZ. Once noticed he looks quite robotic.

So true.

However in spite of that, and the title music which I really don't like, I'm really sorry it's ending, until the spin-off.

I can't think of another series in recent memory where I really cared what happened to the characters.

She used to grate me a little earlier on, but as others have said, she’s matured into a very good character in the series.

The best series on Prime.
There was that French spy series which was as good but haven't seen subsequent episodes come up on Prime, cannot remember the name.

The Bureau. It was very good.

Baron Noir was another French cracker.
