Brilliant British Courtroom Drama,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Judge John Deed : Pilot Episode + Complete Series 1 [NON-U.S.A. FORMAT: PAL Region 2 U.K. Import] (DVD)
Each Episode is complete, yet there is an ongoing Political and Love theme which needs the avid viewer to watch all of them in order.
Fascinating interplay between characters whose depth develops throughout. John Deed is the Judge you would want on your side IF YOU WERE INNOCENT and he doesn't care whose toes he steps on to arrive at the truth. The higher the better. The 'Establishment' wants to get rid of him at any cost and many times John Deed lays out their opportunities on a plate. We have watched most episodes previously via Satellite TV from the UK but they are so addictive that we are now embarking on acquiring the complete series.

ENGROSSING DRAMA,
By sabu (u.s.a.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Judge John Deed : Pilot Episode + Complete Series 1 [NON-U.S.A. FORMAT: PAL Region 2 U.K. Import] (DVD)
WHAT A GREAT DRAMA. FROM THE PILOT THROUGH THE FINAL EPISODE YOU'LL THOROUGHLY ENJOY THE "JUDGE" WHO IS A VERY SERIOUS, HUMOROUS AND FAIR MAN DURING A TRIAL WHILE BUTTING HEADS WITH THOSE IN POWER.

More In Tune With American Sexual Drama,

Judge John Deed: Season One & Pilot Episode
If you want little more than to be sexually seduced by the able actor Martin Shaw, then this series is for you. Shaw is an excellent actor; and without his musky presence in this smokey set of dramas, the shows would sink to the bottom of The English Channel before they were able to reach the murky shores of the Hudson River in New York, USA. If you're looking for a set of courtroom dramas that pay heed to British law, then this show is sure to disappoint. The plots are outlandish in that they defy the law at every opportunity in favor of carnal titillation. If like me you first watched Martin Shaw play the role of George Gently -- honest, noble, and yes, sexually attractive character -- and if in addition you expect to see in this series the same type of honest force for the law expressed within that character's personality, then look again and in a different direction. In my opinion, this show is little more than a chick flick dressed in magisterial robes. I won't be purchasing Season Two.
