Jackson Brodie Series

This page was last edited on 18 August , at By using this site, you agree to the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. While searching for a lost cat, private investigator and former policeman, Jackson Brodie takes on the cold case of a girl who went missing thirty years earlier. He is also talked into helping a grieving father find the man who murdered his daughter, and tracking down the niece of a mysterious seductress. In addition to his hunt for a killer and a long-vanished young girl, Brodie takes on another missing-persons case. The show has also won two other awards: Each series [season] of the show has three episodes, and each episode is about an hour in length.

Each series also breaks down one of The Jackson Brodie series novels; for example, the three episodes of series 1 cover the events in book 1, Case Histories. As with the novels, those who have watched the TV series are divided into those who loved it and those who hated it.

However, many of those who hated it went into the show expecting a procedural crime drama like Criminal Minds or Law and Order —but Case Histories is not that kind of show. The stories, as they are in the novels are much more character driven and focus more on developing the characters than on making the mystery blow your mind.

A majority of those who have watched the show expecting more characterization and drama and less criminal procedurals seem to have enjoyed it a lot more than those who expect the vice versa. All in all, The Jackson Brodie series is an excellent look at characterization and an example of how mysteries can also have strong character depth as well as mind-boggling puzzles.

I decided to have faith in the invisible tendrils of intrigue, horror and hope that Kate's writing wraps around the hearts and minds of her fans. Maybe great stories are great stories in any medium, if you just get out of the way.

It seems from the responses to the series that, at the very least, we've driven even more people to discover her effortless sorry Kate - seemingly effortless prose. Her satirist's eye, the minute observations that reveal everything about a person through the most innocuous gesture or phrase, the mischievous and audacious use of coincidence, the telescoping of time and experience can obviously work even in the literal, linear 2D world of television.

But let's not fool ourselves: Wildly and justifiably popular and engaging ones.
