For fans of the pilot and book alike, Bosch has been given a 10 episode order. Titus Welliver at last gets the chance to stretch his acting chops a the lead in a tv series. No word on the air date yet.

About the show once the pilot had aired, which is weeks gone.
I loved the Pilot from last year, left me wanting more!
Hello Bosch Fans! Happy New Year. We are less than a month away from the Bosch television show being available in all its 10-episode glory. Starting today, Amazon is putting up the new and improved pilot for viewing. You may be asking, do I really need to watch it again? Well, that of course is your choice but I thought I’d tell you a little bit about some of the changes we put into the pilot after we got the green light to film a whole season. The main changes are in regard to the court case. Bosch is being sued for killing a man during the investigation of a serial killer case. If you remember the original pilot, the trial started at the beginning of the case with opening statements from the attorneys and Harry in the defendant’s chair watching. When we got the go ahead on the first season we decided we should come into the trial after it is already underway and Harry Bosch is on the witness stand. We wanted Harry more active in the courtroom and this did the trick. We also had to bring in a few new actors because some actors in the pilot had schedule conflicts once we set our shooting schedule. One of the new ones is Mimi Rogers, who plays Money Chandler, the attorney suing Harry. She’s really good and just like the Money in the book. There are a couple of other added scenes as well. But I think the new courtroom scenes are very important because Harry is now a participant. He is testifying and revealing himself, and the information that comes out is important to his character and the rest of the episodes in the season. The new pilot is up and available now but if you ask me, I would wait to watch it when the whole season is available on February 13 and you can roll from the pilot right into episode 2. At least that’s what I think.

Yes, ....
Do I watch or not?
This series seems to be a composite of 2 novels, 'The Concrete Blond' and 'City of Bones'.
Titus isn't exactly how I'd imagined Bosch but he's OK in this IMO.
I've read almost all of Connolly's books and I'm really enjoying this series having watched the 1st 3 episodes back to back.
I personally like Titus Welliver, thought he was excellent as were the rest of the cast.
Solid stories well told, hope it's back again next year so well done to Amazon with the show.
Really like Titus Welliver in this, not seen him in many of his roles but this character certainly seems to suit him.
Superb casting of Bosch. Rarely do films or TV get the main character right (Tom Cruise as Reacher????) but this time they've got it right.
Im still out on this Bosch, Ive read all the books and Bosch to me was a Brian Dehenney type person being an ex marine and able to handle himself. But I will wait and see as I go through the series
This and Transparent are a very good start for Amazon prime.
In depth discussions like this, the reason I joined this forum
I've not seen Transparent, I'll have a look.
