I just watched the first episode on Ballard, the new sequel to Bosch.
The producers had telegraphed that Bosch would pop up on occasion on
Ballard so I thought I should mention that the name Harry Bosch was
indeed spoken out loud at the end of the Ballard pilot, suggesting we
will see Harry at some point. (To be fair, they showed some previews of
the rest of the season and those scenes didn't show Bosch so maybe we
won't see a lot of him. Or maybe they didn't want to dangle him in front
of us too much for fear of making him look like a crutch for Renee
Ballard.)

In any case, the pilot was pretty watchable so I'll stay with it even if
Bosch doesn't appear very frequently.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the idea of a police unit that
is staffed almost entirely by volunteers, retirees, and interns yet
still has powers of arrest. I have no idea if that is realistic and
would be curious to know if it is.

She's popular but I find Maggie Q to be a pretty untalented.   I know this
series is based on books but I would have rather they had followed through
with the proposed series about Jerry Edgar.   I like Jamie Hector as an
actor much more.
