"Dammit! He's unorthodox, but he gets results!" A light-hearted look at Luther.


So, I've watched several episodes of Luther. I'm not through the whole thing yet, but this is what I've learned about the structure and content of what I've seen so far. So, here it is, a typical episode of Luther.

1. Luther chases down a criminal. He employs violent unorthodox methods to capture or injure them.

2. Luther's superiors are not happy, they suspect he's a bent copper. "Dammit!" says Luther's boss, "He's unorthodox, but he gets results!"

3. There's a weird murder. Luther is on the case.

4. The police are baffled, but Luther makes some accurate predications about the killer's mental profile.

5. Luther meets Alice. There's lots of weird sexual tension. Will they, won't they?

6. There's another weird murder, which often involves someone Luther know or loves. Luther is first on the scene. He almost catches the killer, but they escape. Luther cries a lot. He's lost so much.
