Pacific Heat (2016–2017)
7/10
Under-rated and unnecessarily hated on
9 December 2016
Everyone's immediate reaction to this is "Oh Archer rip off", as it was mine when I saw it pop up.

BUT give it a chance, watch a couple of episodes, and it's actually well worth sticking with.

The plot is episodic, doesn't tend to carry over, and can be a little thin, but it makes up for this with fast paced humour and dialogue. What some see as messy, actually adds to the humour and creates a constant pace; I never feel that it's been 22 minutes by the end of each episode.

Some of the accents/stereotypical representations of other ethnicities are a little questionable in fairness, but it's satire!

Overall, well worth a watch, and I hope Netflix recommission for a 2nd series and don't duck out due to people not giving it a chance.
