Death Notify: The Darker (2014)

This was a really interesting series to be watching. I felt that the story line was well written and really well acted out by the cast. Each of the individual cases usually spanned a few episodes and there was of course an overall case which is to catch darker. I was sucked into this show from the very first episode onwards. I felt that each of the police officers had their own personality and they brought something different into the group but also onto the cases that they solve. I felt that at first each of them didn't work really well together but as time went by and they spent longer together they started to really care about each other and worked better as well.

For a mystery-detective drama about a team of investigators trying to pursue a vigilante named 'Darker', the entire premise success relies on how interesting Darker can be - and is well delivered. The Darker mystery slowly unravels by the crimes he brings to the public's attention, providing a side-commentary on society's dark underbelly. Crimes 'solved' then poses a question to viewers if Darker's methods are truly correct if justice can't be delivered via lawful methods.

Also, the investigation detectives are rather unique with their own skills and personalities. Although there was much initial conflicts and disagreements, the team really grew into a family-like dynamic as they share success and setbacks when confronting Darker. I feel that the team reflects as a positive mirror to Darker, as the two share many core skills and competencies while conflicting in their central viewpoint of justice.

Overall, a great drama and is worth a watch. The acting is superb with a solid story that twists and pulls in the individual cases, as well as the main mystery as to who Darker really is.
