Da Vinci's Inquest - Season 3

As good as cop-dramas can get.

I just finished season 3 and I feel that it tried to break the mold set by seasons 1 & 2. (Both seasons 1 & 2 were bookended by two-part serial killer episodes.) I detected a hint of an attempt to make the show more "hip" by some producers by sexing up the transitions between plotlines and between commercial breaks. Thankfully that bit of stylized goofiness was tamped down by episode 4. Personal lives get more attention. Most of the mysteries aren't solved or solved ambigously. There's a two great episodes that center on traffic fatalities. Another outstanding one happens in "real time" as Da Vinci tries to score dope for an addict/suspect. Can't wait for all seasons to be available. I find it also entertaining to catch Battlestar Galactica cast members guesting. November 13, 2008

Stunningly Good Drama with an Outstanding Cast

Excellent stories, well acted and set in beautiful Vancouver, B.C. Lots of political intrigue both inside the police and coroner service and in the broader civic context. Lots of social crusading too as a subtext but nothing off putting. Similar to the British, great character actors with memorable faces consistent with the roles they play. If the Canadians can do it so well why can't we? Nicholas Campbell does a wonderful job in the title role. Alex Diakun the actor who plays Chick Savoy the coroner's investigator is stellar.

Davinci Season 3, give me more

13 great stories, most with no clear cut ending, that stimulate the imagination and leave one thinking about, "what happens now?" What happened to the greiving father who still does not believe that his daughter died accidentally or what happened to that two year old boy once he reached five did his mother kill him too in some "accident" or was she the wretched victim of bad luck that she claims?

In any case the writing is excellent and the acting, particularly from those actors playing the survivors of their loved one's accidental or intentional death is both breath taking and painful to witness.

The series as with the previous 2 is five-star wonderful. I am only hungry for the next series to be released as soon as possible August 4, 2008

Season 3 - Fabulous

I could not put down these dvd's until I watched all of them, practically immediately upon receiving them. There was actually one program that I had not seen before. This series is absolutely the top-notch program on TV anywhere. I am hoping that we do not have to wait too long before the rest of the seasons are put on DVD.
