There's a "new" one with Timothy Olyphant and his now-teenaged daughter (blergh...oh, joy, more snarky female teenage characters, sigh, bossing around their single hapless dads, amirite?) set in....
either Miami or Detroit. In fact, I think it's both--starts out in FLA and goes to the Motor City.
It's a
limited series, so...y'know, probably 6 epis or the like. IDK if this helps:

Y'know, the whole "how quickly people dip back into the well" shows a complete and
utter lack of creativity in Hollyweird, for one thing; that the accountants are in charge of decisions, rather than some of the creatives; and
that people like what they like.
It's why episodic story-arc TV exists, anyway--I mean, whether it's Miami Vice or whatever, people want "new stories" each episode or week--but they also want to know what to
expect. To be fair to the writers, I guess it's a bit of a high-wire act for them, to be new yet familiar at the same time.
I'm just hoping that the daughter character won't do to this what the Maddie character did (IMHO) to that last season or two of (real) Bosch. When I want crooks and baddies, that's what I want--not the emo ramblings of some tweedy girl. But then again, I'm not the person making the showrunning choices for all these things at these various and sundry networks, stations and so forth.
