Bart is awesome!

She is, by far, one of my favorite characters ever.

That show was good
vman2000
Loved season 1. Didn't really care for season 2. I remember ages ago listening to an audiobook for Long Dark Teatime of the Soul read by Douglas Adams. It was absolutely amazing.
Badsequence
I miss this show so much I re-watch it like once a year
GhostOfPierceHawthorne
That's Fiona Dourif. Her dad is Brad Dourif, of Wormtongue and Chucky etc...
GhostOfPierceHawthorne
She plays a pretty good holistic assassin.
RestlessVagabond
She is also in a couple Chucky movies, and plays multiple characters in the TV show: her movie role of Nica, Chucky, and a younger version of Charles Lee Ray.
MacusC
Never has a daughter looks so much like her dad than she does . I think her dad is a great actor and highly underrated .
infinitesimalwonder
Such a fantastic series, RIP

The dude who got stuck with the knife danced with Buddy the Elf in the mail room… how life changed
thereitis101
So, are all her stats in luck?
YevKaseem
Basically. She's a holistic assassin, meaning that the universe puts people that need to be killed in front of her and she kills them.

Dirk Gentlys Holistic Detective Agency. Holy shit what a good show. One of the only shows ever to make me say "holy shit what the fuck" multiple times pet episode. And Elijah wood!

Thank you! (note to self - Dirk Gently clip with Bart Dourif being crazy amazing)

This actress’s father voices Chuckie, the evil doll
derpiesherpies
Absolute favorite complete season of a show ever , season one was a masterpiece.
Bart, the women in this scene was my favorite character by far
Angel337
Does she have super luck, or what's her deal?
animatronicChristmasChickens
Holistic assassin. The universe places her and her target together. She kills who she feels like, and they seemingly can't hurt her, presumably because the universe wants them dead
WeThinkTooMuchAndFeelTooLittle
She is a leaf in the stream of creation
Volpe42
Old? This show isn't that old.
animatronicChristmasChickens
Only 8 years

God damn it.
cuddleskunk
Wanna feel old? The movie Independence Day came out longer ago from now (28 years) than the Apollo 11 moon landing did from the release of Independence Day (27 years).

I fucking love Bart so much. I miss Dirk Gently, what a fantastic and underrated series.

Audio would have been awesome
GeorgieCostanza
Its sped up though so would probably sound dumb.

Okay, so it's NOT just me. Even restarted my phone.

This adaption is much, much better (for fans of the books); https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2303367/

Luck is not a super power!
redav
My favorite character in the whole show. I was very disappointed when they didn't have her in the second season.
AWESOMEGAMERSWAG
What movie is this ❓️
LitterBoxKing
Thanks for the reminder. I need to rewatch this. She was easily my favorite character.
wurstkaesescenario
Her acting was amazing in this show
STEMinist
She’s an amazing actress. I love her in the Chucky movies and the series.
Volpe42
Her dad was the voice of chucky
STEMinist
I’m aware. She’s fantastic when she impersonates him in the Chucky series.
Casually
While I don't believe Bart was in the book she is very much so something Douglas Adams would come up with.
eppykaze
She wasn't. The only part of this story that Douglas Adams had actually written or story boarded was that Dirk got hired by the rich dude and was in route to the town.

And the throw-away line about the case with the couch
RawChicken
As a massive fan of the book I actually really enjoyed this series despite it being very different to the original content. An absolutely wonderful show that should never have been cancelled!
mikeatike
The series being entirely different from the book is on brand for DNA.
Schadwen
Fiona Dourif was really great. She's the daughter of Brad Dourif who (among other roles) was Piter DeVries in the 1984 version of "Dune" and also Grima Wormtongue. He was also the stranger in the video for Toto's "Stranger in Town"
YevKaseem
Dude's been in lots of stuff, hard to pigeonhole him into one part.
morgulking75
And the voice of Chucky
AgnosticPaladin
Nominated Oscar for supporting role in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, and a Golden Globe. I think it was his debut.

A very weird show.
DrewK98
I've got to rewatch that. I know I saw it, but don't recognize this at all.
Katateochi
weird (well not really, I was prolly high), but I def watched both seasons, don't recognise this at all....but it's also familiar.

Same here

Fentex
A very poor adaption of Douglas Adam's Dirk Gentley's Holitstic Detective Agency- it's its own thing that completely misinterprets the joke of the books story.
BellicoseBreakfast
It's very different from the book, yes. But it's also much better than the book.
MeleeIslandTourGuide
I interpreted it less as a "poor" adaptation and more as "inspired by"... Not all books are set up to translate into a tv/movies without (sometimes dramatic) changes.
MeleeIslandTourGuide
IIRC, the HHG2TG film gets a lot of flak for being too different from the books, but D Adams was very involved in developing the film adaptation's development

Big shame that the writer for the tv show, Max Landis, turned out to be a huge POS. 😢
invisibulman
That series was a trip! I absolutely loved the first season, but it was so all over the place that it was bound to have a steep fall off. You just can't capture lighting in a bottle twice.
my1rstlaptopwas34inchscreenup
very good first season
FrozenMonkey
First season was very fun to watch. I loved the bridge hostage scene in particular.
Second season was meh.
InkyBlinkyPinkyAndClyde
I didn't like the way the second season changed the feel of the show, but the longer I watched, the more it grew on me. Now I think it was great.

I really liked this series, unfortunately stopped after 2 Seasons
FrontlineWater
Wait.... I'm just finding out there's a Dirk Gently series?
phuzz00
Better yet, there's two entirely different ones. One UK based one that is somewhat like the books, and a US one which is completely different, but manages to be completely unhinged in just the right way (which this gif is from)
HandoB4Javert
somnif
Yep. Sadly the show runner, Max Landis, turned out to be absolute scum so it died after 2 seasons.
somerandomusernamebecauseididntlikemyoldone
there are two, one older one with stephen mangan with just 4 episodes, which I enjoyed, then the newer one with elijah wood (from ~2016) with a bunch more, which I also enjoyed.
CookiePiSmuggler
The show was absolutely amazing. Sadly way too short with only 2 seasons.
phuzz00
(Plus, Douglas Adams also wrote for Dr Who, and tended to recycle ideas, so you could almost put *Shada* as the original Dirk Gently TV, if it had actually been filmed)
crazyfishlady
Darker than I expected for some reason, but very well done and worth the watch!
HowMuchWoodCouldAWoodDuckDuckIfAWoodDuckCouldDuckWood
How did they turn two and a half books into a TV series
crazyfishlady
They took the essence of Dirk Gently and ran off with it in several unexpected directions.
