Cheery and calculating Elsbeth Tascioni leaps from her Chicago legal practice to a Columbo-esque mystery-solving gig in New York City in Robert and Michelle King's new series.

is TV’s latest series about an eccentric non-police investigator using their eccentricities to solve murders, as well as the latest to use a throwback template — we tend to citeTV

Elsbeth is also a Chicago-based attorney, so you’d think it would require a lot of work for her to become what is effectively a private investigator in New York. The simple explanation is that, as a result of a consent decree tied to a wrongful arrest lawsuit , Elsbeth has been sent by the DOJ to serve as an outside observer monitoring the NYPD. All accommodations must be made for Elsbeth’s presence, much to the chagrin of‘s Captain Wagner.

It’s a guest star buffet. In the first episode, Stephen Moyer plays an acting instructor and director who offs a student he was having an affair with. The second is built around a popular Bravo-esque staged reality show overseen by Jesse Tyler Ferguson as an emotionally insecure producer. They’re very similar, entertainment industry-based mysteries, and the dynamics between Elsbeth and the two ostensible killers play out with a similar cat-and-mouse energy.

Pierce is frustratingly underused, but his slow-burn discouraging response to Elsbeth matches well with Patterson’s slow-burn encouragement. They’re the only two additional regular characters who come to slowly realize that Elsbeth is brilliant at the thing she does, even if nobody is quite sure what that thing is.
