Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency - have you seen the Netflix series?

I am learning all the time. The tombstone will be my diploma ~ Eartha Kitt.

Science Fiction (65) Mystery (10) Remake (7)

Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency is a Netflix series inspired by the character created by Douglas Adams in the novels Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency and The Long Dark Teatime of the Soul, and is not to be confused with the British series Dirk Gently, also based on the books, starring Stephen Mangan.

The Netflix show relocates Dirk from London to the USA and alters his backstory somewhat, though at least they didn't turn him into an American. It stars Samuel Barnett as Dirk and Elijah Wood as his assistant, Todd. If you're watching the series, what do you think of it so far?

I wasn't expecting to like it because I hate it when they relocate British shows to the US like that, but I found the mystery really intriguing and I like the characters.

We watched the first season - my husband who's a big Adams fan hated it. I didn't mind it but when we started to watch season 2 the other day, we got bored and moved on before the end of the episode...
