Summary
Reviewers say 'Bosch' is lauded for its strong character development, especially Titus Welliver's portrayal of Harry Bosch, and realistic police work depiction. The series is appreciated for compelling storylines and high production values. However, some find it predictable and formulaic. Mixed feedback exists for later seasons, particularly Season 7, criticized for pacing, contrived plots, and political elements. The acting of supporting characters, such as Maddie Bosch, has also drawn varied responses.
Featured reviews
Characters so humanized and with real problems that make you identify with them.
Intertwined stories and plots that make you learn a lot about how the judicial, police and government systems work, with all their bureaucracies and facets.
And a very good soundtrack that influenced me in a good way listen to Jazz.
I recommend this series without reservations.
As a huge fan of Michael Connelly's Bosch books, I was looking forward to seeing this pilot and I wasn't disappointed. Titus Welliver is the perfect Bosch, the rest of the cast are just as brilliant and the writing and production are both spot on. The story line is in fact two Bosch books woven into one and it has been done very cleverly. Bosch fans have been waiting for twenty years for this character to be put onto film but for me, it was worth the wait. I would dearly love to see this made into a complete series. Titus Welliver is as brilliant as always and has the tormented look behind his eyes that any Bosch fan would expect to see. He may not physically resemble Harry but that is soon forgotten. Watch, enjoy, rate and share!
My wife reads a lot of books from Michael Connelly and if the books are as good as this series then I might consider reading them as well. Because Bosch is really a quality show. Detective series with a couple of mysteries are most of the time entertaining when they are well made. This one is for sure one of the better ones. Easy to follow, with good actors, and with an excellent storyline. There are enough twists and turns to keep you interested for a whole season. Titus Welliver as harry Bosch is a delight to watch. I honestly hope there will be a lot more seasons. I just saw the first two complete seasons in a week time and I can't wait for the next season. Quality!

How long do I have to wait for Season 5? I binged on the first four seasons, liking it better with each episode. I've read the books, too. I'm a Michael Connelly fan. Harry Bosch is a fully realized character and it's a pleasure to watch him move in on the bad guys. More, please, lots more!
Bosch is one of the best police dramas there is and that's saying something considering there are about a thousand to choose from! It's a gritty, suspenseful drama where the acting is terrific! Titus Welliver is absolutely perfect as Harry Bosch! It's sucks that this incredible show is ending after Season 7 but I guess it's better to go out on top than hang on too long. If you haven't seen this amazing show yet I highly recommend that you make the time to do so!

- TriviaIn response to the showrunners' quest for verisimilitude, the production was granted permission (a first) to film inside the actual L.A.P.D. Hollywood Station (1358 Wilcox Avenue) where the shooting was done late in the day after most of the detectives had left. Various off-duty police volunteered their time to play extras.
- GoofsAll California emergency vehicles have to have a steady burn solid red light to the front. LAPD uses 1 of the LED pods in their roof light bar for this. Police cars in this series do not have such a light, while the in-car lights for the unmarked vehicles are correct (one red steady burn, one blue blinking).

Jerry Edgar: Golf is a great sport.
Harry Bosch: Golf is not a great sport. If you can smoke and drink while doing it, it's not a sport.
