Criminal Record is currently streaming in Australia on Apple TV, and in the US on Apple TV, and its case-by-case structure never gets in the way of the bigger story. 2 seasons means there is plenty to get through without ever feeling padded. 151 viewers have already rated it on TMDB — the kind of consensus that does not happen by accident. Peter Capaldi's performance alone is worth the time investment. Put it on tonight on Apple TV and see for yourself.

There is a reason Criminal Record keeps coming up in conversation. At its heart, Criminal Record understands what makes crime drama work — character first, plot second. In the heart of London, an anonymous phone call draws two brilliant detectives—a young woman in the early stages of her career and a well-connected man determined to protect his legacy—into a fight to correct an old miscarriage of justice. Peter Capaldi and Cush Jumbo lead a cast that never lets the mystery feel thin. 2 seasons (2024–2026) gave the story room most shows never get. What distinguishes the best crime dramas from the rest is whether the character work can carry scenes where the mystery takes a breath — Criminal Record passes that test consistently. It delivers reliably on what it promises, which is more than most of its competition manages.

If you cannot walk away from a good mystery, Criminal Record will keep you hooked. If you have already watched Goliath, Criminal Record is a natural next step. Best experienced as a single, sustained watch if your schedule allows. Peter Capaldi carries scenes that would sink a lesser production. The resolution feels inevitable rather than arbitrary, which is rarer than it sounds.

Criminal Record is currently airing new episodes, created by Paul Rutman — so there's no better time to catch up before the story moves forward.
