I love this show.  
Does it air in England?  
I’m curious how accurate it is.

I like the show. The actual crime stories are fairly basic, but there’s an appealing protagonist, lots of quirky characters, and a good sense of humor.

I really enjoyed it aswell. Though the stories weren’t very gripping the characters were genuinely interesting and rounded. Too bad it was cancelled before it found its audience.

Keen Eddie was a show that both my mom (66) and me (26) could agree on–something that most shows can’t say.

She is very upset that it is (was?9I am not in the US at the moment)) being shown on Bravo, because she doesn’t get Bravo.

Yet another show that had such great potential and was canceled before it even got started.
