No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency - FUN, INSIGHTFUL, WITTY ... Wish More Seasons Were Forthcoming
This DVD covers the early books in the world-wide, best selling series, entitled "The No 1 Ladies Detective Agency,' by Alexander McCall Smith. The books in this series are uplifting and heart-warming in their coverage of the people, culture, and traditions of Botswana (Africa). This DVD set of 3 discs covers the early books in that series. The actors chosen to portray the books' characters are excellent. The DVD set follows the books fairly closely (of course, some liberties are taken to make the video more appealing and better adapt the plots to the TV screen. IMHO, this DVD set is a great value and you the entertainment value of the stories on it are wonderful. My only regret is that the powers-that-be did not continue producing more episodes after this first season. It would be ...

It would be wonderful for BBC/PBS to take this on as a project, re-assemble the cast, if necessary, and continue capturing the author's entire series of books into future TV episodes.

A African Female Detective:
This was a surprise to me. I wondered how in a basically male dominated culture a female could take the lead as a detective in Africa. It was smartly acted and written. I had never seen this before. The approach was different because of the environment this female had to operate in, and to my wonderful surprise this series is a gem. Unfortunately there are only two seasons of it and only one is available; so the viewer is left hanging at the end of the first season of it. Even how she becomes a detective is interesting. She is the glue to the supporting cast around her and they themselves are interesting. The African scenery is wonderful; you feel like you are there. The way it is told, while it is in Africa, it's very relatable to the viewer( some of the investigations she takes on); ... This was a surprise to me.

The way it is told, while it is in Africa, it's very relatable to the viewer( some of the investigations she takes on); therefore allowing you to see the cultural differences and similarities; showing that basically we have similar issues, we're the same. I like that.

The No.1 Ladies Detective Agency
I have read and reread all of Alexander McCall Smiths books, they are well written, intelligent entertainment that is never insulting, older people love these works as much as children. Smith writes about factious people in Scotland which I love, yet my favorite characters are from this series. These interesting stories cover well over 20 books. You get a feel for these simple yet elegant people in Botswana Africa and their traditions, I can't help but feel close to Precious Ramotswe, of The No.1 Ladies Detective Agency as well as her odd-ball assistant Mma Makutsi, all of the towns folk that wrap around these main characters are lovable and engaging, even when they are misguided or simply no good. I recommend Series 1 on DVD, these actors were beautifully matched to the original books ...

I intend to write to this amazing author to please promote Series 2, this creative masterpiece could be one of the best viewing opportunities for any family.

Entertaining, light and easy.
An entertaining look into the small town life of an African country. While mostly light and easy, there are bad guys too, though violence is not a theme. It even grew on my husband who now wants to read the books. Well produced, good acting and script, good characters and costumes, good music and stories. I enjoyed each episode.
