The first two episodes were terrific, then starting with episode three on to the finale, it started losing its footing. The cast is first rate, and Madden deserved his award for best actor in a tv drama. As Roger Ebert once said, when you watch dramas like Bodyguard, you need to just enjoy it and not focus on picking apart all the thin plot threads. The twists and turns can also be hard to follow, so much so, that I'm not even sure they tied up all of the loose ends at the end. The finale was good and bad. One scene went on way to long, but at the end, it was a real surprise to see what seemed to have escaped all of these coppers and security specialists. The action scenes were super and the suspense held up in the early stages and in some but not all parts of the six episodes. Worth watching.
