Okay, not joke-every-30-seconds sitcom funny, but it has a light tone and manages to take full comedic advantage of the sometimes dark and usually surreal situations the characters find themselves in, even though they may not be amused by it at the time. You can drop it knowing you gave it a fair chance. If you’re not interested in this show halfway through the first episode, then it’s fair to say you probably won’t care for the rest of it.

Here there’s nothing to explain because this show hits the ground running and nobody knows what’s going on. Here there’s no slow start, no “pilot episode is weak because it has to introduce everyone in an awkward and expository way”. As for why this is worth watching:Īs a personal aside, I hate recommendations that start with “give it a few episodes and it gets good”, which immediately makes me consider the attractive alternative of “maybe I just save my four hours in case your judgment sucks?” So given all that, the viewer still doesn’t know: Who was in the penthouse room? What was the murder weapon? Who did Todd really see? Why did Dirk come in through Todd’s window in particular?īut that’s just some of the plot. It continues with bellhop Todd seeing somebody that looks just like him while he’s having the worst day possible, and Todd’s day ends with affable Brit Dirk Gently breaking into Todd’s second floor apartment through the window and announcing Todd is now his assistant.

Weird, random (but never arbitrary) seemingly unrelated occurrences. Rather it’s more the spirit of those books. If you answered yes to being a Douglas Adams fan, then you’re probably familiar with the two Dirk Gently books he wrote, about a detective that wanders around while clues to his case (and these are weird cases with science fiction/fantasy elements) just drop into his lap.

Asking yourself “What is going on here?” out of curiosity rather than remote-throwing frustration….

Science Fiction mystery shows like The X-Files, Lost and Dark.

I even think there is some kind of article on the Netflix page about this.Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency is one of the most interesting, bizarre and well written mystery shows in recent memory. Also, I used to get a lot of shit for this explanation from a lot of people since its not a really good answer but IMPO I do think it is what really happens, I mean, it's all business at the end of the day and this does sound like a normal "money/license/approval" kind a thing, like with music and such. That being said, this is what I heard back in the day when I used to work there, but in all honesty, there was not one single person I met that actually managed content and there is no like 100% accurate info about it.
