You think Netflix fucked over that Dirk Gently?

ITV made a Dirk Gently show that was FOUR EPISODES LONG and it was better than the other show.

Gotta admit I didn’t watch that… I found out about it after I finished the Netflix show, and that it was cancelled. So I felt salty. Maybe I should watch it…

It's much closer to the books. It deserved at least a British season of six episodes.

I also like Stephen Mangan's Dirk more than Samuel Barnett's Dirk, but then I'd watch Stephen Mangan read a newspaper.
