I gotta say, I'm kinda skeptical about this show
. Stephen Fry is a genius, don't get me wrong, but playing a "quirky" lead role just sounds like a way for the writers to give him something he can play off of
. I mean, what's the point of making Conrad Henry an elite interrogator if he's just gonna use his charm to crack cases? Where's the edge? The darkness? It all sounds a bit too smooth and polished for my taste
.
Plus, let's be real, Fox is banking on this show being the next big thing because it's Stephen Fry in a lead role, not because the actual storytelling or character development are that compelling
. I mean, 12 episodes? That's just a lot of material to get through without something getting stale
. We'll see how this plays out, but I'm not exactly sold on "The Interrogator" just yet
