Wong & Winchester

I love these kind of shows and Wong and Winchester is great! Doesn't take itself too seriously and has a little fun each episode. Not a super high production quality show like HBO or something, but perfect easy viewing when you aren't looking for anything too serious. Like Nancy Drew or Hardy Boys for adults. Reminds me of a lower budget Remington Steel or Magnum PI or Monk. Nice and simple series about private detectives solving mysteries usually with a few funny twists. The characters are great and a bit more adult themed than some shows so maybe not for watching with young kids. Main character and her sidekick are funny and have good chemistry, like a very off beat Holmes and Watson.

I really love this show!! It's light and fun. An online friend of mine said it best...

"Funny and witty dialogue, interesting story each week and the dynamic between the two main characters is great - you are rooting for Marissa to warm up and accept Sarah as more than just a "driver".

I have watched the same episodes more than once and still really enjoy them! "

Disappointed that I didn't discover the show earlier. Wish it was getting more seasons. If it was given more of a chance I think it could've really bloomed into something trully great. Too bad. But I'll keep recommending it to friends!!!!

Could it be improved upon? Of course, but it's only got the one season.

All it needs is a a second season to flesh out some character development, then a third with a bigger name to attract more viewers. Maybe a guest star, like a harried gas jockey from town from Saskatchewan played by Brent Butt or something. Maybe an in-need retired defense lawyer threatened by an ex-client played by Sonja Smits.

Perhaps a certain guest star that hung out at a Mosque from a flat part of Canada ;) Otherwise, great cast, decent scripts. Not astonishing, but on par with Hudson and Rex or a more comedic Rookie Blue. An enjoyable guilty pleasure.

Last only one season but a very funny comedy/crime about a detective agency owned by Marissa Wong (Grace Lynn Kung) who is selfish, cynical but with a great heart.

Her assistant who Marissa refuse to admit as her assistant and call her as driver is Sarah Winchester (Sofia Banzhaf). The duo is hilarious and a total oposite of each other.

The dialogue is well written and a strong part in this series.

Grace Lynn Kung and Sarah Winchester have a excelent perfomance in they roles.

Grace in particular with her facial expressions is hilarious.

Perhaps by not being a american series (canadian series) they didn't have the attention they deserved . Highly recomended series.

Its meant to be a comedic detective show. Protagonist is a cynical ex-cop with a penchant for illegal shortcuts to get evidence. Her sidekick is a young nerdy do-gooder.

Together, they unravel mysteries and catch the villains. Unfortunately, the characters are without nuance and bite. The script could certainly be improved.

Having watched Episode One, my verdict is 5/10. Harmless after dinner entertainment. But, without teeth.
