McDonald & Dodds News!

I can't believe it! McDonald and Dodds, one of my favorite mystery shows, has been cancelled after only four (short) seasons! This popular (yes!!) series starred Jason Watkins as DS Dodds and Tala Gouveia as DCI Lauren McDonald. ITV has cancelled the show due to falling ratings. Fans, me included, are devastated. The show aired on BritBox in the U.S. 

McDonald & Dodds is set in Bath, England. It's about a pair of unlikely cops thrown together. They have built a great relationship and crime solving success. It's clever and fun!

Fans are not taking this lying down. A petition has been started at Change.org. 

"ITV says the show just doesn't have the viewers. Let's show them who's watching! If ITV won't have it back, some other platform. If it worked for Shakespeare & Hathaway, it could work for M&D!"

What do you think?
