        The cases were initially interesting but as the drama progressed the interest dwindled and the later cases were generally weaker. Which contributed to giving the feel that it was longer that it is. The attempts at humor often felt forced, and the serious moments from the main cast were undermined by the lack of emotional buildup, the guests of each case were kinda okay in that regard. The awkward pacing and stilted dialogue didnt allow the story to breathe either. I found the duo female dynamic to be problematic and sloppy. They just didn't click well on screen and were generally unlikable. The other two 2-hours TV-specials were more or less the same but were an unnecessary lazy addition that didn't fix anything nor show anything worthwhile.
