Synopsis

Jonathan Ames, a young Brooklyn writer, is feeling lost. He's just gone through a painful break-up, thanks in part to his drinking, can't write his second novel, and carouses too much with his magazine editor. Rather than face reality, Jonathan turns instead to his fantasies — moonlighting as a private detective — because he wants to be a hero and a man of action.

mrronocon I really loved this show. I would highly recommend anyone reading this to give it a try. The only regret you will have is that this series was canceled way to soon. It really should have been given the ending it deserved. Ted Danson is hilarious. If you like film noir or old detective movies then add an extra point to the score. Some of the set pieces are excellently executed and it has a continuing set of recurring characters throughout the three series. If I did have to point at a fault I would say the acting could be better in places and it's the main character is most at fault for this. Otherwise great show. Enjoy.
George Grigorian I missed it when it started back in 2009, but somehow I had a feeling that this would be a great show. I started watching now on HBOGO and am loving it! Great story, great acting! One of the only things that helps me relax in these stressful days we live in.I have to say though, I got really sad when George was diagnosed with cancer and I was really bombed that why my favorite show that make me soooo happy has to have such drama in it... just to find out, that it was a mistake!!! :) I love you guys!!! great writing, great acting!!! Love the lines that Ted Danson says from time to time in the show and quote them on my facebook page crediting the show of course! I would love love love to work with you.cheers, George :)
robfromfort Hey what's to say? This has just come on Sky TV and to be honest I think they were just looking for something cheap to fill half an hour once a week. The ad looked hilarious until I realised it's just half a seasons only funny bits strung together.At some point an Israeli Jew asks the main character whether he's one of those self hating New York Jews, only way you'd find this funny is if you were.Don't get me wrong Jewish humour which plays on stereotypes can be hilarious, take Seinfeld for instance its how it plays and this just seems shallow with dull unlikable characters and a wasted idea.
sinful-2 After 2 episodes I gave up. It just did not get better. Story is about a slightly alcoholic and pot smoker that after his girlfriend left him is trying to be a private investigator. He is a quite pathetic guy with a pathetic life who is behaving really pathetic and stupid all the time. Some people may find it fun, but honestly I would believe the target group may be for people that like Woody Allen movies, but I am not sure really. His boss is in my eyes the most interesting and closest to fun guy. The rest is just plain weird and no fun at all. But I would say you could find a lot better comedies with more believable characters and better jokes. Not bad acting besides main actor I would say though.
