Harry Wild

If you liked Miss Fisher, or Jane Seymour, you will like this show. It's fun Agatha Christie style mysteries solved by an older woman and a young man, that she meets by random. Interesting characters, great cast, and good stories. I really like it.

Acorn did it again! Casting Jane Seymour as lead character is the right decision. She clearly have fun as an amateur detective, and combining classic literature as a part of story is just great. Can't wait for season 2, Acorn! 💋

It makes me want to learn Shakespeare and other books- or read them again. I'd say that is a great outcome for a show these days. Jane of course is wonderful. The supporting cast are fine too. I'd like to see more series- I hope they continue for a while.

It's good to see Seymour in a series again. And while I enjoy a good British cozy mystery, I can't recall ever reading or watching one based in Ireland. I'm enjoying the characters of Fergus and Harry and the emerging friendship and partnership between them.

There have been a number of similar shows on UK TV recently; odd-couple detective teams e.g. The Chelsea Detective, Murder in Provence, McDonald & Dodds. Fabulous for me as they are right in my wheelhouse and this one delivers.

Harry (Jane Seymour) is self-confident, mouthy with few social filters and, as a recently retired English Professor, offers unwelcome grammatical corrections during conversations. She has a detective son Charlie (Kevin Ryan) whose life she generally makes a misery by interfering with his cases - usually by solving them! Her partner-in-crime is Fergus (Rohan Nedd) who is an articulate, street-wise teenager from a poor background. Indeed they first meet during a mugging perpetrated by Fergus on Harry! Their relationship works well and they develop a growing mutual admiration as their complementary skills help them solve cases.

Easily-digestible, enjoyable viewing - believable core characters - interesting stories flying above the mere procedural.
