Trivia
Along with character names, and near identical pilot episode, the murder cases are also the same with the french version of the series.

Goofs
Despite her very high IQ, excellent memory, and extensive knowledge of the arcane, Morgan makes a series of basic mistakes of law that anyone who has ever watched a TV law show would know not to make. In Episode one, for instance, she obtains a document from a locked safe in a law office of the suspect-victim that would never be admissible in court--illegally obtained evidence. It also could not be used to obtain other evidence--violation of the legal doctrine of "fruit of the poisonous tree." In Episode 2, she has to be reminded to wear gloves before handling evidence at a crime scene, and in #3, she removes all the documented evidence from the police station, totally breaking the chain of custody and making everything she removed also no longer admissible in a court of law.

A Fine Kaitlin Olson Vehicle

Examining her TV resume away from Always Sunny, and topping her role on The Mick, Olson glides onto screen in a not-so shot-for-shot remake of this French procedural, but she's definitely on vibes with it.

Throughout the episode you can tell Olson was attracted to this project by the way it portrays a struggling, body-empowered, capable woman. Comedy is stitched in through her delivery, much the same as the tongue in cheek of its French take.

What this series does better though is keep you captivated by a seasoned cast led by Judy Reyes, whose stern eyes and soft voice invite the audience to develop a sense of empathy towards the players her character cares to collect around her to seek justice.

The first episode was well done, though editing could use some work. The series would be lifted by more scenes between Reyes and Olson.
