Dept. Q: Sezione casi irrisolti

This is a dark piece of work. The lead nails the despondant, self hating yet brilliant detective. The rest of the cast have been cast brilliantly and the roles acted brilliantly. The story onfolds with just the right amount of flashbacks and character development. All, and I do mean all, is dirty, gritty and believable. This series is a credit to everyone involved in writing,acting and producing. I am left questioning how I approach my own life, my actions and misgivings. It was layered and thought provoking. I am.only on episode 6 so I imagine there is more goodness and darkness in store for me. I will attempt to add to this review in due course.

I have to say that Dept Q. Was actually better than I expected. There are a hundred new police shows that come out every year and even though I really enjoy them, with so many to choose from, one would really have to stand out in order to get peoples attention to watch it. Dept Q did that by all the great reviews it's been getting and how it's been at the top of Netflix's most watched list since it came out. I admit I watch a lot of tv and only do reviews on shows I like, I'm not going to waste my time reviewing something I don't like, I'll just give it a bad rating and move on. Dept Q is good enough to leave a review in hopes others will see all the good reviews and give it a chance. Matthew Goode is great here. I haven't seen a lot of Goode's work but the things I've seen him in (The Crown, The Offer, The Imitation Game, Watchmen, The Kings Man, Allied) he's been good in. This role was made for him and probably the best of his career. I hope this show finds others like it did me because it's worth the time.

Excellent mystery! I wasn't sure at first but was hooked by the end of the first episode.

Carl and the Dept. Q crew are all damaged in their own ways - physically, emotionally - but as they work through the case they slowly move towards healing, separately and together.

But not in a shmaltzy way - there is a lot of smartassery and snark. The characters' interactions are very often quite funny and the entire show has a rich vein of dark humour.

It is refreshing to see so many fully realized female characters who are neither stereotypically entirely nasty nor doormats.

I'm very interested in discovering more about Akram and what he really did in Syria.

I have never seen or read any of the source material so don't know how it compares but it is a great show with a twisty mystery and characters who develop and grow. A little human mess is interesting but full time 24/7 disaster in every episode gets boring after a couple of episodes, a pitfall this show avoids.

I've watched maybe most of crime/detective series and this one is capturing you from the start till the end. Not many connects the spectator to the characters and the subject as this one. The variety of characters' personalities makes the series versatile clinging more to it. Thrilling and addictive being makes me hope to see many seasons to come with this quality. Well done guys! Thank you for making series like this and executing greatly. Having watched too many crime series, I guessed the killer a bit sooner than I'd preferred. My only criticism would be that next season can be a bit more surprising. Nevertheless it still gave me thrilling butterflies till the end.

I'm not ashamed to say that I binge watched this in just 2 days.

I couldn't stop. It was brilliant and I throughly enjoyed it. It was dark, thrilling, excellent writing and well acted, a stellar cast.

I do hope that there is a second series and the final episode was so exciting. I really hope that there is a second series.

I adore a crime thriller & it was definitely one of best series I've watched on Netflix so far this year. Bravo & very well done to all. I look forward to hearing that it's been renewed.

I gave the series a 10 out of 10 and I would highly recommend it. You won't regret it.
