Bosch: El Legado

I am a big Bosch fan, but the Legacy sequel series is a couple of notches below the original. First, J. Edgar the interesting supporting characters from the original only make cameo appearances in Legacy. The exception being two of the least interesting characters from the original, Honey and Maddie. Honey is a fabulously wealthy ambulance-chasing lawyer who seems to have developed a heart of gold through the television years. Maddie has become a bizarre component of every plot. Despite her slight physique she runs down bad guys and manhandles them. Though she also becomes a super-victim damsel in distress at times. Bosch himself is now a private investigator but strangers accord him the respect of a cop and always spill lots of information for him. An unfortunate addition to the series is one of these Mission Impossible tech gurus whose skills border on magic rather than what is technically possible. Sorry to bash away here but I enjoyed the original series and it did not jump the shark for me. I will keep watching if there is a season 3 of Legacy but my hopes and anticipation have been tempered.

Bosch is back with all his bolshy, Boschy Boschiness!

A new role as a PI makes sense drawing on his 27 years as a cop, with Maddie following in his footsteps as a rookie at LAPD. Madison Lintz has developed immensely as an actress during her tenure on Bosch and plays the part of police trainee and daughter admirably.

The main thrust of season one is finding the long lost love and potential heir of an ultra rich man, despite the objections of others. Bosch also enters an unlikely partnership with Honey Chandler as they try to close out on Carl Rogers.

An excellent series with a welcome change of pace and scenario allowing more stories to develop without becoming stale or burdened with baggage.

It's getting a bit tiring that Bosch runs to a hacker to solve his problems every time and this hacker being able to hack pretty much anything. This is completely unrealistic. What's also unrealistic is how he does it.

In 2023 writers should be acutely aware of technology and how things really work OR hire a consultant to review the script.

This is just very lazy writing - a cop out (pun intended).

I wish this show went a bit more out their stiff direction also. The direction and cinematography feels formulaic, just supporting the story and no room for creativity. The acting from the daughter of Bosch as well as Chandler shows a limited palette. Are these actors allowed and incentivized to put in more humanity? Show the rough edges?

Luckily we see Bosch a bit more emotional in the early episodes of season 2.

Big Bosch fan. I want atleast 3-4 more series.

I am a huge fan of Titus and this detective serie. Right now enjoying the legacy but can't get enough. Please make more series. Characters are credible and actors play great roles. Bosch, maddy etc. I recommend this serie to all the detective lovers.

The show is solid with strong familiar characters. It's not the same as the gritty cop drama that was the original Bosch, but it is developing nicel and I have high hopes that it will develop into an 8 or 9. But so far after 3 episodes it's a strong 7. Which is high praise as most of the stuff on TV is barely worthy of a 4 or 5. For me it loses a point because the intro music is horrendous. Like someone should be fired horrendous. They needed to replicate the dark jazzy intro from the original, not use some odd 1980's Miami Vice soundtrack reject. Bosch was one of the only show where I did not click "skip intro". I won't make that mistake with Bosch Legacy. Blech.
