   Tried the 7 day free trial on Acorn to watch a few episodes to see if they   
   were any good. I ended up subscribing ($7 / month) because I started watching   
   a few other shows that are pretty good.   
      
   But back to Lucy.  Her character, Alexis Crowe is in Australia, she is a   
   retired cop who bakes bread for the local cafe.  But one of her former   
   colleges keeps bringing her cases to solve. She ends up with an assistant   
   named Madison, who appears to be one    
   of Australia's indigenous women.    
      
   The cases are interesting enough, but not Emmy winning ones. There was a cast   
   interview and Lucy mentioned she had to learn to use an Aussie accent.   
      
   In the second season, Alexis (and the show) relocates back to NZ (in one of   
   the eps someone asks Alexis if she was Aussie). The formula is the same -  she   
   bakes bread for a local cafe, and a cop brings her case files. Madison   
   relocated with her.   
      
   Renee guest starred in one of the eps, but I'm only in the middle of season 2,   
   and she hasn't shown up yet. (after some investigation, I found out that she   
   is in the final episode of season 2 - "Pleasure and Pain").    
      
    I noticed that Michael Hurst (Iolaus) directed a few of the eps.   
      
   I suppose it the series had been  aired 10 or so years ago, I would have been   
   more excited about seeing Lucy in anything. but I will keep watching to the   
   end.
