智慧、勇敢与正义化身的侦探角色总是能受到观众的喜欢，丧妻的退休探长乔治·詹特利（George Gently）就是极具个性和强烈正义感的好男人，人们一提到他的名字就提心吊胆，因为他拥有能够制服伦敦臭名昭著的黑帮的铁腕手段。他和他的搭档约翰·巴克斯（John Bacchcus）一次次深入险境，解开了各种案件的层层谜团。 这部BBC出品的传统英伦侦探剧改编自作家艾伦·亨特的《乔治侦探》系列，在上个世纪60年代的英国上演了一幕幕老少搭档侦破案件的精彩故事。《乔治·詹特利探案》在澳大利亚、挪威、德国、比利时、荷兰、加拿大、印度、日本、法国、爱沙尼亚等多个国家播出，取得了不俗的收视成绩。 扮演乔治的马丁·肖是英国最受欢迎的演员之一，在他的表演生涯中，成功诠释了一百多个电视剧角色。同时，马丁·肖在戏剧舞台上更加活跃，凭借百老汇经典剧目《理想的丈夫》中的戈林勋爵这一角色，他赢得了托尼奖提名和纽约喜剧委员会奖最佳演员。而乔治的年轻搭档约翰的扮演者李·恩格里比，观众对他应该并不陌生，他就是哈利波特电影第三部《哈利波特和阿兹卡班的囚徒》中骑士公交车的车长——史坦·桑派。 两位不同风格的主演将经典的英伦侦探剧模式中个性十足的侦探乔治和不太情愿跟在他身后的年轻警察演绎的淋漓尽致，剧中两人配合默契，不乏幽默互动，面对扑朔迷离案件，一点点抽丝剥茧，最后查明真凶，是侦探剧迷们不可错过的佳作。
剧集分为八个单元故事，讲述马德钟所演的非常检控观带领一众团队，透过非一般的手法，为受害人寻求公义，带出非常检控观念。
Season 3: 2001–2002 Cast: Rob Lowe, Stockard Channing, Dulé Hill, Allison Janney, Janel Moloney, Richard Schiff, John Spencer, Bradley Whitford and Martin Sheen The third season, which covers the administration's third and fourth years in office, starts off with Bartlet announcing his intention to run for reelection and is heavily devoted to the upcoming presidential election. Other prominent plotlines include Congressional investigations into whether Bartlet committed electoral fraud by concealing his MS, a death threat against C.J. and the ensuing relationship she develops with a Secret Service agent assigned to her, the Qumari defense minister Abdul Shareef plotting terrorist attacks against the US, and a troubling meeting between Toby and the President that leaves Bartlet with a bout of insomnia in "Night Five." The season finale, "Posse Comitatus" closes several of these storylines as Bartlet meets his opponent in the elections and reaffirms his commitment to beat him. The episode ends with the president finally deciding to order Shareef's assassination (a legally questionable act) and C.J.'s agent's murder, just after the man threatening C.J. was caught. From a critical perspective, series creator Aaron Sorkin acknowledged in October 2002 that the terrorism-related plots designed to keep the series relevant after the real-life 9/11 attacks were awkward at times, saying "from week to week, you felt like you were writing the show handcuffed, a little bit. I didn't know how to write it anymore. It was a constant search for what I wasn't doing that used to make the show work. [...] Maybe there was a way to make it work; there probably was. I wasn't able to find it in twenty-two episodes." [1] Nonetheless, the show went on to win its third "Outstanding Drama" Emmy in a row.
