Season 1 Review:
On the whole, Lynley is a solid enough addition to the vast canon of British detective dramas, featuring good performances and several intriguing twists. It doesn't bring anything wholly new to the table, though, which makes it all too easy to compare this version of Lynley to everything that's come before.

Season 1 Review:
While it occasionally touches upon adult themes, there’s still a familiar cosiness which suggests it should be occupying Call the Midwife’s pre-watershed Sunday evening slot instead. .... But its refreshingly straight-forward storytelling and abundance of old-school charm should help reel in both a new generation and those who vaguely remember the original.
