Strangely, it does. I mean, there's a lot of brown lipstick and bad 90's fashion, but (and I hate saying things like this) I think it was a little ahead of its time. I didn't realise it at the time, but it's kind of odd in that the cases are pretty off the wall - a lot of the time they're struggling to pull it off, but a lot of the time they do. I can see why it didn't do so well with the Water Rats/Blue Heelers crowd, though.
Lucy Bell is phenomenal. I adore Tessa. Tessa is nuanced and not-perfect and flawed, and her and Peter Mochrie have amazing chemistry. And the core cast stays the same for the entire show - they don't add or subtract people - and I kind of think that helps to keep the show kind of intimate.
...i have a lot of feelings. I can find you some download links?
