DI Ray

Season 1 of DI Ray has all the comfortable hallmarks of a classic police procedural, plus a fresh perspective and a compelling protagonist. That said, it also has plenty of room to improve. 

To no one’s surprise, DI Rachita Ray survived the shooting at the end of DI Ray Season 1's penultimate episode unscathed, and she’s back to finish what she started in the season finale.

After two episodes spent on red herrings, D.I. Ray’s third and penultimate episode finally picks up the pace.

A doozy of a twist at the end of Episode 2 only somewhat alleviates DI Ray's struggles with one-dimensional characters.

DI Ray is a by-the-books procedural except for one major detail: it stars Punjabi-Sikh actor Parminder Nagra and highlights both the internal and external conflicts of working as a woman of color in the police force.
