The Guardian (TV Series 2001–2004) - User reviews - IMDb
I started watching this after I finished The Mentalist and really enjoy Simon Baker's acting. The show has very interesting and though provoking stories which hooked me from the first episode, and the only thing I don't like about the show is the horrendous theme music. ... "THE GUARDIAN," in my opinion, is a pure CBS classic!

September 25, 2001 - The Guardian is a chilling, state-of-America show, pointedly devoted to the question, "What is a meaningful life?" Simon Baker is galvanizing as the hero, intense and hard to read.

‘A total knockout!’ The best television you never watched in 2025 | Television | The Guardian
6 hours ago - This compelling, meticulous documentary – featuring the Guardian’s Josh Halliday (who has followed the case from the start) as an empathic guide to the murky affair – takes you through the flaws in the case against Letby, alternative explanations for evidence that begins to seem far from unreasonable and the lack of any obvious motive for Letby to commit these crimes.
