Review by C.J. Bunce
A worn-down cop that looks like Johnny Fever (from WKRP in Cincinnati) with a partner that looks like Korg (from Thor: Ragnarok) with a tough-as-nails front desk gal who evokes Janine Melnitz (from Ghostbusters), and a human adopted by a dwarf fresh off a hike to the big city (like Elf in Elf), encounter a rebel woman who wants to make a fantasy world act like our real world… with the aid of a dragon. It’s a little bit The Librarians and very much Vagrant Queen. And it’s filled with characters out of the Tolkien fantasy world and adapting characters from a Terry Pratchett series of novels. It’s the light-hearted fantasy series The Watch, airing Sunday nights on BBC America in the States. You can catch the first episodes this morning on BBC America, and the third episode tonight.
