Luther- Television At it's Finest

I want to focus your attention on a brilliant mini-series by the BBC, which is currently airing in the UK. It’s name is Luther and if you are a fan of The Wire you are going to love this show, because it brings back Idris Elba to the limelight, as pitch-perfect as he ever was.

Now the BBC is known for having produced a lot of high-quality mini-series, TV movies and shows already, so it should come as no surprise they have landed yet another solid hit with Luther.

Every 50-minute episode  is like a mini-thriller movie every week and it is such a pleasurable brain twist every single time. Luther centers around Idris Elba’s London Police Detective John Luther, who is brilliant at picking the brains of serial killers and psychopaths, but also has a violent temper of his own.
His marriage to his wife Zoe is on the rocks because of his demanding job and the toll it takes on the ever thoughtful and cynic John Luther. He loves his wife to an unhealthy degree and although she tries to pull away from him and be with another man, she can never quite resist the pull Luther has on her.

I won't give anything else away , but trust me this show is simply phenomenal. What’s great about Luther are the committed actors, all of which are stellar, especially Idris Elba in all his controlled and uncontrolled anger. And all the unexpected turns the story takes, which creep up on you or simply just yank you around by the shoulders to stare gruesomeness in the face, because some of the methods those killers have on the show are more terrifying than any Saw movie ever was.

The season only has six episodes and i hope that it comes back for another season. You can watch all episodes on the link provided below enjoy.
