Tried first episode of season 1 having been a massive fan of all the original series. Couldn't get into it, does it get better?
Oh, yes.

Still on FreeVee? Or back on Prime?
Freevee and they have an incredibly annoying permanent watermark to advertise the fact.

They are trying to build the brand up I guess.

If it means I get free access to Bosch, I am OK with that biggrin

Still good though. 3 and 4 are back to the usual sort of clever plots we're used to.

I was happy enough with S1 but was bothered by a couple of things. Compared to the original series which was quite deliberate, almost slow, which helped build suspense, the Legacy series moves very quickly, too much so in my view. The other bother was/is his techno-whiz friend, who serves far too often as a get out of jail free card with plot devices of dubious credibility. The latter continues with S2 along with some plot devices that were pretty cringe-worthy. On the positive side it was good to see J. Edgar in a fairly significant part along with several members of the old Hollywood station crew.

Legacy isn't a patch on the original Bosch but it's still watchable

Not in my opinion (watchable that is).

Shame as Bosch was brilliant.

Glad you're enjoying it.

I just found the plots a bit dull for the first few episodes I watched. His daughter being a cop was a bit wky too, just didn't buy it. Felt like they'd run out of ideas and it had run it's course.

I wouldn't say it was unwatchable, far from it, but it's nowhere near as good as the earlier stuff imo.
