Masterpiece Theater

[Drunk Monk]

Endeavor season 8.

This show really deserves its own thread. It stands out as one of our favs from Masterpiece, which has been a tad middling of late. Endeavor is redeeming. S8 is hour and a half long eps. Stacy snuck ahead and watched pirated releases on YouTube as this already showed in th UK months ago. I’m watching it on PBS passport but we’re probably letting go of that soon. It’s just not delivering like before. 

Anyway Endeavor S9 is to be the final one and that makes me sad. The show has a great cast chemistry and a keen eye for the period - the wallpaper alone is worth the watch. My fav character remains the coroner.

 
Endeavor S9 the final season

3 movie length eps. E1 is prelude. It starts out strong with an orchestra death then gets a bit lost with call backs to earlier story arcs from the series and the lining up of some major finale. The cast still retains great chemistry and I’ll be sad of the finale but it’s time. At least they go out on their own terms.

it’s a great series from start to finish. Recommended for anyone who likes Brit police procedurals. This show has been one of the best. It’s got such style, prim and proper like Oxford detectives should be.
