Produced by Fabrik Entertainment, a Red Arrow Entertainment Group company and based on Michael Connelly’s best-selling novels, the Emmy-nominated hour-long series Bosch stars Titus Welliver (Lost) as Detective Harry Bosch, Jamie Hector (The Wire) as Jerry Edgar, Amy Aquino (Being Human) as Lt. Grace Billets, Madison Lintz (The Walking Dead) as Maddie Bosch and Lance Reddick (The Wire) as Deputy Chief Irvin Irving. In season three, based on Connelly’s best-selling novels The Black Echo and A Darkness More than Night, Bosch’s teenage daughter, Maddie, has come to live with him and ushered into his personal life the everyday responsibilities of being a single father. Bosch remains a tenacious cop who struggles to attain justice in an imperfect system; a system in which the guilty sometimes go free, and marginalized and forgotten victims become anonymous statistics. Now, between the murder of a homeless veteran, the slaying of another man tied to several unsolved homicides, and a ...

Amazon's evolving series is beautifully shot but hardly addictive. Review by Matt Cummings If Amazon's solid first offering of Bosch proved anything, it's that the sometimes worn-out cop genre still had more stories to tell. Expertly handled by Michael Connelly - who wrote the books and produced the series - it made instant fans with Amazon's gritty and ugly look at LA and its cops. Season 2 picks up right where the first left off, although the result is hardly addictive. Returning six months after putting his boss through a plate glass window, Bosch (Titus Welliver) returns from suspension to dive headfirst into the murder of guy stuffed in his own trunk and dumped in the Hollywood Hills. The events lead Bosch and his partner Jerry Edgar (Jamie Hector) to the widow Veronica Allen, who doesn't seem surprised by the news. Apparently, Mr. Allen was a womanizer, a porn producer, and dealt in dirty mob money. But as Bosch and Edgar begin pulling on t...

Although a little rushed, the Amazon Original Bosch is a solid, slow-burn cop drama. Review by Matt Cummings Amazon Originals hit it big in 2015 with their comedy Transparent , winning tow Golden Globe awards and solid praise along the way. Seeking to extend their street rep as a legitimate distributor of programming is Bosch , based on the book series by Michael Connelly. And while it's an enjoyable slow burn, the series needs a bit more polish and a few more episodes. LAPD Detective Harry Bosch (Titus Welliver) is no stranger to trouble: a decorated soldier, he's a shoot-first-cop-on-the-edge, with only a broken marriage to show for his personal life. But Bosch bleeds LA, and when the body of a 12 year-old boy is accidentally dug up, he takes a special interest in pursing the truth about his murder. Was it the serial killer Raynard Waits (Jason Gedrick) or the boy's foster child friend Johnny Stokes (Shawn Hatosy)? Together with his partner Jerry Edgar ...

Jacob's Arch-Rival Returns To "Lost" With "Lost" fans eager for answers in the final season of the ABC drama, at least one of the show's mystery may get resolved: Who is Jacob's nemesis? Titus Welliver, who played a mysterious character in Season 5, is set to reprise his role in the second part of "Lost's" sixth season, which premieres Feb. 2. Jacob's nemesis (aka Man in Black), who last appeared in Season 5's finale, is an inhabitant of the Island who had spent a century looking for ways to kill Jacob (Mark Pellegrino) until finally succeeding in 2007 by assuming the appearance of the dead John Locke (Terry O'Quinn) and persuading Benjamin Linus (Michael Emerson) to stab Jacob. The Man is Black's name, identity, motives, backstory and bone of contention with Jacob were never revealed, leading to a flurry of speculation among "Lost" fans about who he really is. A number of castaways will be returning to the island ...
