I was really looking forward to the introduction of a crime series set in Amsterdam. There is so much material to play on given the location. I was astonished at how cliched every character was. Also, why cast British actors in a series set in Amsterdam? The writing was laughable, and none of the characters were at all interesting. I am American, so I can watch this drivel any time on U.S. networks. Loved the travelogue, but that is all this series is.
