There is a sleek chicness to Criminal Record, an engrossing British cop thriller on Apple TV+. It pulls from lots of well-worn formats but reconstitutes everything into its own chilly terrazzo, sometimes to exciting effect. Oh, sure, it's hard to make room in one's heart or viewing schedule for yet another dirty cop who does things his way but he get results, damn it!
Watching the show feels like watching a snake, its gliding undulations mostly moving side to side but actually propelling the story forward.
