Sound effects

Seems some episodes have a lot of accessory sounds. It is a little over done at times. For example Tacoma Confidential- why the ransoms saxophone? And the bird cawing noise?
But if you can get past that the stories are interesting and easy to follow.

Bird cawing

Stop with all the horrible sound effects. That’s why the rating went down.

The synopsis tells it all

Not much mystery when the synopsis has all the story right there
