Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency Season 1 Review

Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency is a funny, quirky, action-packed adventure based on the book by the same name written by Douglas Adams which begins with the grizzly bizarre murder of billionaire Patrick Spring and the disappearance of his teenage daughter, Lydia Spring.

The two main characters are an odd couple, Dirk Gently and Todd Brotzman.  Todd Brotzman is a bellhop who works in the hotel where Patrick Spring is murdered, and it’s he who discovers the bloody murder.  The mysterious and energetic Dirk Gently is a holistic detective was hired by Patrick Springs before his murder.   One the first day he meets Todd he introduces himself as Todd’s best friend.

Other great characters are Bart who is a holistic assassin who wants to kill Dirk Gently and another one is Fera Black who was Patrick Springs bodyguard and helps Dirk as well as Todd Brotzman and Amanda Brotzman, Todd’s younger sister, to find Lydia and solve the murder of Patrick Spring.

This show is wacky and weird but in a good way.  I love how Dirk doesn’t find clues they just pop up and

Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency is one of the best TV shows of 2016 and I highly recommend you to watch it.

I rate it 9.25 out of 10
