Miss Scarlet and the Duke

Stumbled across this show. Have watched 4 episodes so far & loving it. It reminds me a little of The Alienist due to the period setting (not as gruesome though). I hope the series is continued after the first season.

I'm not sure why I chose to watch this, but I'm glad I did. It had me hooked from the very first argument between the main characters. The murder mystery/detective part is not exactly Sherlock, but it's a light and fun crime show with my favourite romance trope and lots of banter, and I'm sorry to see there are only six episodes so far. I'll definitely be waiting for season two.

I have watched every episode across the three seasons of this show. Each season continues to engage me and the characters continue to evolve. The one flaw is that Eliza has not grown as much as some of the other characters. I hope there is another season where she can grow more mature. Other than her relationship with Ivy and Moses we see very little of her lighter side.

The casting on the show is perfect. From Inspector Wellington to Moses and all the quirky supporting cast members, the show highlights some of the best character actors on tv. I really like the recurring character of Nash. I hope he will be back.

I purposely avoid binging the seasons. It is better to savor the episodes. Also, the actor who plays Inspector Wellington is too gorgeous to rush through!

I finished the first season in one sit, it was quite interesting and not a bit boring, kept me glued to my tv till the end.

The plot was amazing, the actors were creatively selected each for his or her role, the acting was great, mosses role was outstanding, I hope he'll have more screen time in the upcoming seasons, the duke was great and Eliza was excellent.

Can't wait for season 2, and more seasons, I wish they have more episodes in each season, at least 12 or 16 instead of 6.

It somehow reminded me of the set of Murdoch mysteries however the plot was more darker in here, and I extremely enjoyed it.

I highly recommend this to anyone.

The costumes and sets are brilliant. Not surprised as the Irish film industry is long accustomed to facilitating top quality period productions. The cast and acting is great, Mr Moses in particular adds to the ensemble. Sometimes let down by the storylines and the set up is a little cliched (two people don't get on but respect are care for each other, hints of romance, will they won't they). It hits a good balance between charm, humour and more serious tones, very enjoyable and do hope we will be able get more when the world recovers.
