Andy Barker P.I.: The Complete Series (2007)

I really like Andy Barker P.I.! It starts at a slow pace but grows on you. Its subtle but steady quirkiness makes it gradually more endearing. The characters are interesting and everyone gets to gleam in their roles (even Ed Asner as the wicked Irish ex-P.I., who we meet in the sixth and final episode). This series was intentionally low-key and thus fated to be cut short. Sure, it lacks the staying power of Columbo or Monk or Rockford Files, but I would not have tired of it. The writing and acting was that good. Enjoy! 4.5 stars. (11-19-2016)
