I am a huge fan of the Law and Order series, but i have to say that this was a total let down. It just doesn't work! The main actors are fine, it just seems that something didn't travel well across the pond.
I liked it! Obviously it has it's shortcomings, but I thought it was pacy and it kept my attention.
I think you have to be wary when comparing it with the original US versions as you have to remember that it's made with about 5% of their budgets!
