Get ready for a thrilling journey into the past with Bosch: Start Of Watch, a new series that will take us back to the early days of the iconic detective. But here's the twist: it's not called The Bosch Baby, despite our brains' persistent suggestions!
In a world where streaming giants sometimes have to settle for smaller brands, Amazon Studios has struck gold with its adaptation of Michael Connelly's Bosch books. The original show, starring Titus Welliver, ran for seven seasons and has now spawned two spin-offs, including the recently renewed Ballard. However, these shows left fans with a burning question: what was Harry Bosch like in his youth?
Enter Bosch: Start Of Watch, a prequel series that will explore Bosch's early years as an LAPD detective. Say hello to Cameron Monaghan, who will portray a younger Bosch, stepping into the shoes of the veteran Welliver. But here's where it gets controversial: will this series live up to the expectations of Bosch fanatics, or will it fall short of the mark?
The source material for the show is currently unknown, as the original Bosch series covered most of the early books. However, Connelly's vast universe of crime-fighting novels offers a wealth of potential stories to explore.
And this is the part most people miss: Bosch's early days were filled with action and intrigue, even before he became a seasoned veteran. We can expect to see Bosch's first steps as a detective, perhaps even his encounters with his first major serial killer.
Start Of Watch is set to premiere on MGM+ next year, with Omari Hardwick joining Monaghan as a veteran detective guiding the younger Bosch.
So, will this prequel series satisfy the cravings of Bosch enthusiasts? Will it capture the essence of a younger, more inexperienced Bosch? And most importantly, will it live up to the legacy of the original?
What are your thoughts? Do you think Bosch: Start Of Watch will be a hit, or will it miss the mark? Let's discuss in the comments and share our predictions!
