Luther is a black male detective which goes against sterotypes. He solves crime using his mind and very basic technology. He has a team of detectives however his private life is also a story told also. This makes us sympathise with him even more. He is an anit-hero but we still want everything to go his way no matter what he does wrong.
Luther is a british crime drama set in London making this a rural show. it is shown after the watershed and therefore isn't suitable for young children however is suitable for everyone else and would appeal to a wide target audience. For example there os alot of topic conversation will will get educated people watching it and a family with oldfer children may want to watch this too as it is good entertainment.
This crime drama doesnt follow all the conventions, you know who the criminal is before the detectives because you see flashbacks and watch them doing it.
you see crime scenes and the police are involved alot in this crime drama due to the anti-hero committing crimes her should not be committing.
The Murderer we know committed the crime however the detectives cannot arrest her due to the lack of evidence this makes this crime drama original and extra entertaining to watch.

Law and Order - review
codes and conventions
law and order follows the normal cides and conventions of a TV crime drama, you see the crime scene and then they use their minds mostly and witnesses but very little technology other than CCTV. They use montages to show alot in a little amount of time. Law and order is a guilty pleasure you enjoy watching it even though you know it isnt right, its fun to guess who the murderer is and getting it right is like a puzzle.
Audience
law and order has a wide target audience and will appeal to everyone however is not suitable for children resulting in it being shown after the watershed.
characters
the main characters are a duo both men, white, one in his mid 30's while the other is slightly older. they occur in every episode. however there is a different crime in each episode meaning a different cast, but some people have small roles but appear in every episode. One of the detectives is an anti-hero as he broke the law trying to solve the crime however got all the credit for it, the other is a hero and abides by the law.
it is a seris however you do not need to watch every episode to understand what is going on. It is in cronilogical order so you know as much as the detectives.
