Requesting recommendations for crime/detective/pulp thrillers that are left-wing or at least non-CHUD.

    The 1980s show (NOT the Mel Gibson movie) Edge of Darkness is a personal favourite. Ecosocialist daughter of a cop (played by the games keeper from Jurassic Park) gets murdered and he starts investigating, discovers conspiracy about nuclear energy and reprocessing. Also has a CIA agent as a good anti-hero, not in a CHUD way.

    Edit: just realised that at the end of that clip there is a pre-grift David Icke talking about sports! Wild. Also, the daughter in the show is played by the lead actress in Willow.
