Nothing like the books
I love Alfred Molina but he is not Gamache; actually none of the actors match the characters that Louise Penny created. Not even a little bit. Maybe I could enjoy the series if I had not read the books? It seems many people who state that they didn't read the books like the series, so, maybe, but I can't get past how shallow and ridiculous the characterizations and plots seem to me in comparison. If you want mysteries that are smart, thoughtful and emotionally engaging, read the books! I learned something new from each and every book.
Write an entirely new, original show that deals with the horrible "education" of native children and the many abuses perpetrated on the native population past and present. THAT and rural vs. Urban values, police insensitivity to non-white cultures... all that and more can be a great basis for a show. Run with it! Why ruin a brilliant series of books?
