Luther - Season 3
Detective John Luther is still battling crime in a third more mysterious season, still fishing in the dirt on Luther, a desperate visit to Gray and Stark Mary, suggesting that Luther killed his wife. However, Gray begins to feel that Stark is out of control in his desire for revenge and trusts in Ripley. Luther discovers Ripley's body and is accused of killing him by Stark and Gray, but during the crossing the police car is attacked and Luther is rescued by Alice Morgan.

It was clear from this opening scene that all the elements that made it one of the most worthwhile British imports had survived the two-year hiatus between seasons intact.

Luther presents a problem for drama writers: Heal him and he's less interesting; perpetuate his damage and the show gets repetitive. Luther seems stuck in the latter cycle.

After watching tonight, you'll check under the bed before slipping under the covers.

Sensationalism trumps subtlety once more. Both Luther and Idris Elba deserve so much more.

Luther is a great example of all of the annoying a TV show can do and still be worth watching, so long as it gets some essential things right.
September 04, 2013
The plotting is perfunctory at best, and woefully, repetitively tired at worst.

At this point, Luther is what it is, and we may be wishing we had it back if the film industry, which is doing its best to pry Elba away from TV, fails to use the actor's many skills to their fullest capacity.

Elba makes Luther's haunted, lonely soul into something faceted and more sympathetic than most of TV's broody detectives.

A "season" of Luther feels brief, because it is. After a two-year wait, the whole thing begins and ends this week. But because it wastes none of that time, it also feels like we've been studying this guy for a long time.

The season finale wasn't quite the explosive full-stop that we'd come to expect, but it was a nice rounding off to this chapter of the show. Whatever will they do next?
