"Endeavour" follows the newly forged relationship -- both working and personal -- between young DC Endeavour Morse and his senior partner, DI Fred Thursday. Returning actors include Shaun Evans as Endeavour and Roger Allam as Thursday, while Sean Rigby takes on the role of a young PC Strange -- the character who appeared in the original "Morse" series, played by James Grout. Abigail Thaw, the daughter of the first Inspector Morse, John Thaw, makes further guest appearances as Dorothea Frazil.

Benji Wilson Daily Telegraph (UK) You have to ask, if there hadn't been Inspector Morse, would Endeavour be worth the endeavour, and the answer is probably no. But Endeavour, as a foreshadowing of things to come, remains just about palatable. Rated: 3/5 Oct 31, 2018 Full Review Sam Wollaston Guardian Familiar, maybe, and comforting (as comforting as murder can be). But it is also really good. Oct 29, 2018 Full Review Dorothy Rabinowitz Wall Street Journal Viewers of this smashing series may well take to heart the aforementioned flood of goodbyes and the sense of a good thing over that descends at the end of season 5. Jul 27, 2018 Full Review Ani Bundel WETA A banner year for Endeavour. Jun 11, 2019 Full Review Gem Wheeler Den of Geek A more pressing concern for long-time viewers will be the state of Morse's legendarily troubled love life. Oct 31, 2018 Full Review Barbara Ellen Observer (UK) This is Endeavour all over. You're watching it lolling on the sofa on a Sunday night, slightly concerned that it's slowly turning your brain into coagulated Ovaltine, when it suddenly throws out a subversive gem.

Paul O Well acted. Well executed. It hard to not binge watch this show. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/23/23 Full Review Audience Member I CAN'T SEE yet the development of the 'morse' character played by the late John Thaw, but It is enjoyable nevertheless. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Marianne D Smart and engaging—having seen both the Inspector Morse and the Insoector Lewis series twice through, I can attest that the writers and actors have done a superb job of seamlessly connecting “Endeavor.” Well done! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/28/18 Full Review Audience Member The BBC offers the best in police drama and Morse et al. is among the very best. although the plot lines were starting to thin in Endeavour Season 4, and Season 5 continues this trend into highly implausible situations, it is still Must See TV. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Hello everybody! I don't know why so few reviews on this series, in my opinion, it is worth attention. Already have watched last season's using boxxy software , easy navigation service and for free. Not all the series impressed me, but there are very interesting ones, until the end you can not understand who is , who did it? Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Unlike American mysteries, I can't see the ending coming from a mile away. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
