For crying out loud! Why can't people grow up and stop being sanctimonious, nit-picking morons? It's not perfect, but it is pretty good. It's fast paced, has interesting characters and plot lines and James Nesbit's acting is bloody brilliant. The rest of the cast do a great job, too. The story has a nice supernatural twist with the bracelet, but if you don't like that kind of thing I wouldn't watch it, and don't leave a negative review because of it. As well as that, it's a pretty good and gritty crime drama. I've reached episode nine so far and I'm looking forward to a second season if they choose to keep this series going. There are some really bad films and programs being churned out these days, but this isn't one of them and I think its 7.2 rating is pretty close. Go with that and give it a shot...unless you think you might have sanctimonious, nit-picking tendencies, then you might want to give it a miss to save yourself the stress and frustration of it all.
Reading the other reviews, I believe that most people expected to see a spandex-dressed superhero series. Stan Lee's name in the very title of the series would cause that.
This is a police story. Police detectives who have to deal with something seemingly impossible. It is the concept of ordinary people who have to deal with extraordinary situations.
It is closer to "Fringe" than anything else. Not much action, but plenty of mystery. It has an intriguing plot (with a few minor flaws) that keeps interest quite high. Acting is OK, nothing exceptional, but nothing disappointing either.
Overall this is a great story, told in a satisfying way. As I am a fan of the genre, I consider "Lucky Man" to be one of the top 3 series of 2016.

This is exactly the type of TV show that has an great first season, but due to lack of initial momentum does not get picked up for a second. That is why I urge anyone who is thinking about watching this show to take a chance with the first two episodes, and go from there. Odds are, you'll appreciate the gamble, and eagerly await the next chapter.
On the surface is a very well produced detective/mystery show with episodic, seasonal, and perhaps even a series arc. The main character is a very colorful fellow at the outer edge of middle age. He's clearly a man of contradiction - experienced, good at his job, but also an addict with his personal life spinning out of control.
The surrounding characters are very well cast, and there really are not any weak links to the ensemble. Everyone comes off as well thought out, with their own lives, history, goals and desires.
This isn't your typical comic book hero, or comic book realm. By all accounts this is the same reality we inhabit, but with a touch of magic in the form of an enchanted object. Once the power can't be denied, it becomes a question of what to do with this yin yang ability involving the positive and negative qualities of luck.
Perhaps the number one quality on display here is the writing. The dialog comes off as believable, the deliveries are well performed. This says something about experience, and the actors we are dealing with. It's refreshing to watch a new show with no gimmicks, just rock solid writing, production, acting, and premise.
Lucky man has gotten off to a great start, and deserves a following to ensure not only a first good season, but a complete series run.
An excellent start - 8/10

Being honest I watched 2 episodes then said Meh, and stopped. Not because it wasn't good but perhaps there was just more to catch up on. having said that and weeks later having run out of things to watch I gave this series another shot and boy am I glad I did! Each episode delivered and raised the stakes to another level. I rarely yell at my monitor screen but I did a few times near the end there. What a great freak'in show! Can't fault any of the performances. Can't fault who's bad or good or both because it was all great! One of the best series I've seen in a long while and quite unexpected!
Though there is a premise of a magical Bracelet, this series did not fully rely on it. Character driven and who knows what comes next is the base of this delicious show. Give it a chance and you might be as blown away as I was. Wonderful TV!

It's early days, but the pilot episode shows real promise. Played out as a proper British cop show/gangland drama, with characteristic British tropes, the excellent London setting and some fine actors, but with Stan Lee influence. What's not to love as a concept!
There is a danger that it may over play the clichés and tropes - court room, marriage drama, mysterious strangers, corrupt cops, hard arse bosses and instantly dislikable colleagues all make an appearance (not spoilers!). That's fine as long as the writers continue to keep them balanced.
But if they can maintain this balance and keep it dark and true then it bodes well.

Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesThis has been one of Sky 1's most successful dramas, even more than Fortitude.
- GaffesThe main character is continually addressed as "detective", which is par for the course in the USA, but not in the UK. On the British Isles, police officers are addressed by rank, with the "detective" part dropped and just Constable, Sergeant, Inspector etc. being used.
