The series debut was fine.
People seem to forget that this is Criminal Intent so we get a twisty plot, over-intelligent detectives who might be on the spectrum and not much courtroom action.
Although far from perfect I think the premiere delivered.
The quips exchanged by the lead detectives keeps things light when things are heavy (and it might hint at a deep relationship between the two) and the plot twists were just enough to keep the episode moving along.
The use of the city of Toronto is done well without bludgeoning the spectator with Toronto overdose.
My only qualms with the first episode is I'm not sure I enjoyed the police lieutenant, her dialogue seemed off and also there was way too much walking (fast) and talking!
All in all I'll be sticking around to watch other episodes.
