![]() ![]() Lastly, I really enjoyed how different the second season was in comparison to the first, but how true it stayed to its core nonetheless. Yet, it isn’t just accepted as this all-powerful entity, but instead everyone questions it and tries to figure out their place and job in the scheme of things. When everything is chaos, it makes me feel comforted to know that there is a reason/purpose behind things. Without giving away what will happen, there’s some great character development happening there.Īnother thing I adore is the overall theme of everything being connected (which I have said quite a lot in this post already). Everyone has their own qualities and traits I love, but I have a real soft spot for the Rowdy 3 (who I can only describe as energy-sucking vampires?) and Amanda. Whenever I am asked who I like best, I couldn’t possibly chose. They are not afraid to be unconventional or ugly, which makes them feel real and complex even in the most unreal of settings. One of the most important ones is definitely the cast and the characters they represent. There are a couple of reasons I enjoy this show so much. It’s like an intricate jigsaw puzzle and neither the characters nor you know what’s going to happen next, but in the end everything is connected and that’s the whole point. Thinking back to season 1, I didn’t even know what was happening for the most part of it, but I still adored every second of it. I am usually quick to guess where a plot may go, but whether you’ll like Dirk Gently or not, I can promise you it never gets boring. It is extremely quirky, witty, funny, confusing and well acted. They took the core concept but then made it completely their own and that was probably way better than trying to replicate it exactly. So, I am going to try my best at convincing you today!Īs I’ve mentioned above, the show is nothing like the books by Douglas Adams. That’s one of the things with Dirk Gently, since it’s so hard to put into words what it’s actually about, it’s also extremely difficult to convince people to watch it. It’s the underdog that no one even expected to actually be produced, but once it was out there, it really shone bright … if people actually watched it. #Watch dirk gently holistic detective agency series#His new assistant Todd alongside with Todd’s sister Amanda and kick-ass Farah get dragged along the adventure as everything seems to be connected.ĭirk Gently (which is what I will call the show for simplification) is one of those series that doesn’t really fit in any kind of category. So, please, please, please, watch it on Netflix!ĭirk Gently centers around the titular character has he tries to solve one of his curious cases. Show creator Max Landis said that not all hope is lost, if enough people watch it on Netflix, they might take over the show as a whole. Anyway, if you follow me on Twitter, you will have seen me running a little campaign to #SaveDirkGently, because BBC America cancelled the show without even waiting on the international numbers from Netflix. It originally aired on BBC America, but is available worldwide on Netflix (except in the US, where you can watch it on the BBC America website … I think?). It’s a science-fiction, supernatural, fantasy, detective comic series based on the books by the same title written by Douglas Adams (yes, the Douglas Adams who also wrote The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, although it is nothing like the books). It’s very difficult to describe what kind of show it is, because it’s definitely not like anything out there. ![]() ![]() More about that later, here are the basics first.Ĭurrently, there are two seasons of Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency available. ![]() Those of you who know me, know that I mostly only feature shows that I really love, but this one is especially near and dear to my heart. You all seemed really happy that the #CurrentlyWatching feature is back, so in return I am more than happy to provide you with even more shows to watch/binge. ![]()
