I would have guessed mid-twenties ;)
Terrific show, and the premise lends itself to all kinds of interesting story lines. The writing and cast are top notch.
I enjoy her character. It leads to a lot of funny moments, and in itself it is amusing that someone who investigates murder scenes is so positive.
I like most of the characters, and the cast is great. It makes for a lot of fun and funny interaction. It did seem odd that Chloe fell for Pierce so quickly, but he was good-looking and muscular, and it seemed like he was the reliable type, which Lucifer was not.
Actually, shows you like getting cancelled means you have very good taste. Generally, the most popular, non-cancelled shows are garbage that appeals to the lowest common denominator.
Love this show, and the more episodes the better!
Getting other people killed.
After Ernesto de la Cruz poisoned Miguel's dad, Hector, he stole his songs and his guitar. Miguel had a homemade guitar that copied the one de la Cruz made famous, the one that had belonged to his dad before it was stolen.
Since Colin wasn't arrested, and the police were not going to continue their inquiry, Colin had less to worry about from the blackmailer. Basically, the guy only saw him key the car, I believe, which is rather bad for a barrister, but he was apparently also doing a lot of probono work to help others, so they probably would have gone easy on him. The blackmailer had already gotten 5 thousand pounds, then wanted 20 thousand more, so likely at that point he wasn't going to continue to try to pay him off. Possibly Colin was largely worried that his supposed assault on a woman at work would come out if there was a lot of interest in him, but fortunately the police were able to determine that she had been put up to it by David Walker, because Colin had "asked one too many questions." That revelation was obviously a huge relief to him and a great load off his conscience, so was one of the good things that came out of the investigation, along with Miriam's family finding out why she had issues, and Sara's dad having the opportunity to find out what happened to his daughter and apologize for not being more supportive.
Actually some people do taste food differently, not that it makes everyone else part of a dullard mob. Tasters taste bitterness more than others. It's a genetic thing, as two copies of the gene make one taste bitterness very strongly, while one means a person tastes bitterness about average. No copies of the gene mean basically not being able to taste bitterness well at all. This explains why my mom kept insisting that the horrible medicine tasted like "nothing," so we kids shouldn't have been kicking up a fuss about having to take it. I suppose being able to taste bitterness could have been a survival characteristic, since a lot of poisonous plants taste bitter. However, it can be a drawback, because the healthiest green veggies tend to taste bitter, and most beer and wine seem not worth drinking due to the bitter aftertaste (unless put in wine coolers, etc.).
Hadn't heard of the term before, but I think I am one. The Sherlock Holmes characters in their various incarnations are the similar characters that stand out.
You forgot coral red.
I'm pretty sure he did say he raped her, but his buddies only watched. Since he was supposedly overseas at the time, maybe he was talking about someone he did that to in another country. If it was during a military action, he would be more likely to get away with it.
She does explain that she believes that the more attention that is focused on the case, the more likely it is to be solved, which is true. Getting all the locals to keep thinking about it makes it more likely that someone will remember something or notice something, as Dixon did with the guy in the bar.
They most certainly do. It has to do with eating too much green food like legumes, clover, or alfalfa, which ferments and puts off a lot of gas. Normally that is dealt with by belching, but the gas can also get trapped in part of the stomach. They can die within 3 hours if nothing is done. The quickest treatment is to poke a hole, preferably with a tube inserted so the gas can continue to escape.
It's called ruminal tympany, also known commonly as bloat.
She said she could change files, but not memories. It was the bad guy erasing memories, or so I thought. Maybe it was memory files she was erasing, but our detective acted like he had no other memories. Apparently the bad guy could erase people's actual knowledge that anything in particular had happened. Not sure. It was a bit confusing.
I thought it was interesting, and Clive Owen is always watchable. However, it was very noir and a bit slow, especially in the beginning when they were setting up the premise. It reminded me of the TV series, "Person of Interest."
Using tech is one thing, and we are free to ignore the marketing, but being targeted by fraudsters is another. However, it looks like the US presidential election results were changed by surgically targeting the electoral college, based on personal information that was illegally sold. Almost 3 million more voters wanted the other candidate.
It was an interesting line. I felt the meaning was simply that her business was her own and no one else's. Not sure if what she was doing should have been considered criminal -- she was basically just a PR fixer. Unethical, certainly, because she was covering up for people so they could lie to others, but we certainly have no lack of that in this day and age. Since she wasn't stealing or hurting others physically, even though she could have easily, her job really wasn't anyone else's business, let alone her private life.
I think basically she wanted to stay low and not be noticed.
