What could be better than a belligerent alcoholic Irish private investigator. Can't wait for a series based on Bunny McGarry. If you like this check out Backstrom (TV Series 2015) - also about a lovable a-hole alchy detective or The Guard (Movie 2011) - regular grouchy Irish cop (not alcoholic).

This is not your idealistic, admirable sleuth. Quite the contrary. But he is diligent, intuitive and relentless. Murder and mystery shrouded in darkness and an alcoholic haze. Iain Glen leads a good cast with good performances. The stories are not complex and you may get ahead of Jack as he solves them, but, all in all, its a good watch. I give this series an 8 (good) out of 10. [Criminal Mystery]

The first season was great (9/10). Only watched the first episode of season two and it was very dark and just plodded along (3/10). Season three got a big intro music/opening, but fell flat on it's face for the story in episode one - it felt very strained and short of actual content (3/10). I think I'm gonna pass on the rest. My advice - watch season one and then pack it in, imagine that's where this story ends.
