As one of two drama selections from Amazon Studios’ 2014 pilot season, Bosch unleashed its gripping first season in 2015. Based on the bestselling series of detective novels written by Michael Connelly, Bosch brings the dynamic Harry Bosch to life from the page to the screen.
Titus Welliver stars as the titular Los Angeles homicide detective Harry Bosch, who finds himself standing trial and facing up to his past when a cold case reopens. Meanwhile, the inter-office politics prove intriguing when a new recruit jumps into the mix of defending justice.
Since True Detective is a thing of the past (never forget Season 2) and network television produces police procedurals a dime a dozen, scores of crime series fans are most likely shopping around for their next noir-leaning binge. With two 10-episode seasons and two more on the way, Bosch is the new boss of detective dramas.
