In 1989, writer Colin Exton began adapting Agatha Christie's stories of detective Hercule Poirot for the screen. It has taken 20 years, but he and lead actor David Suchet (who was handpicked by the Christie estate and has been critically acclaimed as the perfect Poirot) have now filmed all of the Poirot short stories and novels. Here in the first season, the show gets off to a slow but enjoyable start with ten short stories from various collections. Suchet is remarkable as Poirot with great back-up from his co-stars (Hastings, Inspector Japp and Miss Lemon appear in most episodes even if they didn't appear in the equivalent short story). Exton's writing is very faithful to the short stories, and season 1 is very enjoyable. Buy it, particularly if you are a Poirot fan!
