Uncle BarkyJun 1, 2018
Season 1 Review:
The two protagonists carry the day, though. C.B. and Robin are well worth rooting for as they sift their way through both the crimes at hand and their own personal dilemmas. So keep writing these characters, J.K. Rowling. They’re every bit as down to earth as Harry Potter was fantastical.

Season 3 Review:
The characters, and the tender relationship between them, acquired new depth with flashbacks to Strike’s military days and Robin’s confession of her own past trauma. Their dialogue was witty. Grainger shone and Burke inhabited his role with stubbly charm. You could almost smell the fags, beer and angst on him.

Season 6 Review:
The plot hasn’t warmed up properly yet but it doesn’t really matter as the two main characters are so well-drawn, the yearning chemistry between them carrying things along, with Pat (Ruth Sheen) and Midge (Tupele Dorgu) in the office providing the “normal person” vibes.

Season 1 Review:
Throughout, the disparity between Strike's melancholy disposition and robin's sunnier outlook makes for enjoyable teamwork. C.B. Strike may not break new ground in procedural storytelling, but it stays refreshingly true to character. [28 May - 10 Jun 2018, p.16]
