      @lavadad2629 8 ปีที่แล้ว +19

      That's the point. He's not supposed to be a dark and bruding character. He's a Max Landish character who took small parts and inspiration of the story to write what he did. This Dirk is supposed to be exciting, an idiot, one that just goes with the flow, that also has a darker back story. I don't want a character that's like "I know everything and I deem you lesser for not knowing as such". I like the new one.

      Mostly because the only thing the books and the show share are the name and the kind of humor, more than that, Max Landis made everything, which is very uncomfortable because he *is* a good writer, but has such a low quality of human being.

      But I was disappointed in plot itself, it's interesting, but it has nothing to do with Douglas Adams's book other than a main character's name and brief references to books in the pilot

    Samuel Barnett is the only reason I've decided to watch Dirk Gently because of Beautiful People (because Adams novels about Dirk happens to be so outdated and boring)
    and turns out both tv shows pretty much about the same - trust. and find the people who you can trust. just in different settings.

    First of all, we deserved more DGHDA, and that show deserved a lot more, too.
    Second, and I know this is 5 years late, but Elijah! You don't wear hats like that unless you are wearing clown makeup! Hat's are an important part of a gentleman's wardrobe, and wearing a hat that far back because it is several sizes too small is the same as wearing a dinner jacket made for 3 people and wearing suspenders because your pants are too big. You might as well just put on the clown nose and big shoes.
    You guys have no idea how much I wish dudes would just learn about hats before wearing them.

    OK this is so wrong. What they telling. Because it's clearly Dirk and Bart are the same. They are all protective. One on his way and the Burt just killing the bad guys. They all like destiny, fairy tale karma police, (because you know they must come to the politics first if they real) but one guiding others and other doing all by herself. Eventually all bad guys must be killed. (hello LEXX) One way or another.

      But I wouldn't say this shows writer is average, they produced something fairly original, with enough nods to the book to make me gawk, and kept Dirk's quirkiness nicely contemporary. I'd say they did pretty good. :)
