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.
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.
Elba makes Luther's haunted, lonely soul into something faceted and more sympathetic than most of TV's broody detectives.
Luther is good at dropping in moments of heightened suspense just as you're starting to think the script is packed with so many cinematic clichés you might just laugh. That's if you weren't so scared.
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?
After watching tonight, you'll check under the bed before slipping under the covers.

A very unbalanced last season, Luther disses some of its best characters in favor of more of the same. Very similar to S01 and that's not necessarily a good thing.
