Dirk Gently

Season 1

Meet Dirk Gently. He's poorly dressed, perpetually insolvent ...and uncommonly good at solving mysteries. As proprietor of the Holistic Detective Agency, Dirk follows methods that are, in his own words, "based on an almost unswerving belief in the fundamental interconnectedness of all things." Affably played by Stephen Mangan (Episodes), Dirk is aided--and frequently irritated--by his hapless assistant, Richard MacDuff (Darren Boyd, Holy Flying Circus). Together, they tackle cases ranging from a missing cat to a murder that may involve the Pentagon.
