But I watched the trailer, and I do not recognize a single person or thing in it – and that would include the titular character, which shares a name, job, and nothing else. I understand that Hollywood takes vicious pleasure in getting the source material wrong – but this is the BBC.  They should be ashamed of themselves.

PS: I’m not saying that it’s gonna suck. Merely that it’s not actually Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency, in any meaningful sense of the term.
