History's Greatest Heists with Pierce Brosnan

I've been watching a lot of true crime for a writing project I'm doing. They can get pretty grim. It's nice to watch a series where there's some planning, intrigue and police work where a person isn't dead at the the end of it. (For the most part)

Pierce Brosnan does an excellent job of presenting the series. There's a snappiness and lightness to the series. The capers are all interesting and presented in detail. Almost all the episodes prove no matter how well a caper is planned something is, usually, overlooked.

I'm hoping this series is picked up. It's very informative and wildly entertaining. Any one of the capers could make a good movie.
