Resumen
Reviewers say 'Elsbeth' is often likened to 'Columbo', with praise for Carrie Preston's quirky lead character. The show's charm and engaging premise are highlighted, though some find the formulaic plots and early reveals of the murderer less compelling. The supporting cast and guest stars are commended, but there's a call for stronger writing and more complex mysteries. Mixed opinions exist on pacing, making 'Elsbeth' a fun yet improvable series.

Many people here have quite rightly pointed out that the format of this show is Columbo. That's fine. I have no problem with that. I loved Columbo and I loved the Elsbeth character in The Good Wife and Good Fight. The only issue here is the length of the episodes. Columbo episodes were an hour and a quarter to an hour and a half long. This gave the rumpled detective loads of time to play cat and mouse with the murderer. Elsbeth episodes are a feeble 45 minutes, so it often feels like everything is getting wrapped up before Elsbeth has even taken her coat off and sat down. Maybe some longer episodes for the second season please.
I've watched Columbo and he definitely wears down the bad guy, I see some of that "spark" with this series but ...The overall crimes are interesting, the storytelling I hope will improve. I watched about 6 episodes. Carrie /Elsbeth toned down the quirk in latter episodes TY. I do not appreciate the derogatory "boomer" references and it turns me off; nope not a boomer, but show some respect because writers who came before, can write circles around those today. Officer Blanke is actually my fav character, she seems the most authentic, realistic of all: young but smart and observant, open-minded, respectfully defiant and helpful. The actress is capturing that. I will give the show a few more episodes before deciding.
First season was great with good plots for the mysteries and enjoyable acting. Second season onwards it feels like lot of plot holes are left in every mystery. Characters have a standard format and each episode just change their gender, occupation or lifestyle. Each murder arc going in the same linear direction for second season.
The acting by main lead is good but can't run the show only on that. Need a bit improvement on writing and direction. Also, the background plot for main season is lacking in 2nd season, which was shown in a good way throughout the season 1.
The first season is good and wonderfully organised for murder mystery fans!!

This show is fun,it's columbo 2.0 but with a goofier columbo. Like columbo,she immediately knew who did it in episode number one. I love the humor and goofiness of Arlene. Lol (sorry,couldn't resist) the show is refreshing and reminds me of the greats in my day. Columbo,McCloud,Hart to Hart,McMillion and Wife and so forth. Only 1/2 way through first episode and definitely hooked. I hope the writing holds up,it gets an audience and runs for a long time. It's really rare we get a show the last few years that's not trying to push some agenda on me. I will definitely be watching every episode. Give it a try.
I WANTED to love Elsbeth, I loved her in The Good Wife/Fight and loved Carrie Preston in everything from True Blood to Claws and this show wastes her talent and sullies her character. The writing/plotlines are so unbelievable, they're insulting. As an attorney, Elsbeth would gather little snippets of info and file away things that people said and look at things several different ways. As a second-rate Columbo, she meets the killer and apparently just gets a feeling that they are the killer and it's so clumsily done, it makes me miss a 50 year old show like Columbo. Do better guys...Carrie Preston, Wendell Pierce and Elsbeth deserve it!

- TriviaIn the first episode, Elsbeth is standing near a curb and gets splashed by a passing car driving through a puddle (a clip that was also heavily used in the promotion for the show). Instead of reacting with anger or disgust (as a more stereotypical New Yorker might, and as Sarah Jessica Parker's Carrie Bradshaw does in the opening credits for Sex and the City), she looks absolutely overjoyed. In an April 2024 Washington Post interview with Carrie Preston, journalist Emily Yahr explained Preston's thought process behind the reaction: "Preston read the script and knew exactly how to play the scene where she gets soaked by the car. Obviously, Elsbeth is a huge Sex and the City fan, and therefore thrilled to experience a Carrie Bradshaw moment in New York. 'I decided that Elsbeth would find that absolutely 100 percent delightful,' Preston said in a recent interview on set in Brooklyn. On the show, Elsbeth has just moved from The Good Wife's universe of Chicago to work as a court-mandated legal observer of the New York Police Department-and she is truly dazzled by all the Big Apple has to offer. 'She's like, "Yes, I'm here, I've been splashed . . . I'm a New Yorker!"'"
- ErroresTascioni is Italian for "Big Pockets," and is pronounced "tah-SHO-nee," not "tass-ee-O-nee." Tascioni is NOT Italian for "big pockets". That would be "Tasconi". The pronunciation of Tascioni is indeed "tah-SHO-nee," not "tass-ee-O-nee." Tascioni has actually no meaning in Italian.
