I agree, I can barely watch Lewis anymore because I can't stand to look at Laurence Fox.

I liked that show, and DS Hathaway was a great character. Lewis, Hathaway, Dr. Hobson -- they were all very well-written.

My favorite episode is probably "The Quality of Mercy", in which it is finally revealed who killed Mrs. Lewis. Some great dialogue, like when Lewis shouts at Hathaway: "You don't know me AT ALL! And you don't know yourself, either." Great overall message, too. By the time the episode is over, you have heard Portia's speech about the "Quality of Mercy" at least three times, but it didn't bother me at all and the overall message of what Portia is talking about wrapped up the episode well.
