Welliver explains why he constantly winds up playing more serious and dark characters and how why he finds the character of Harry Bosch such a compelling one.

With so much streaming content out there these days, it can be easy to miss really great stuff.

If you are a fan of police procedurals and you're interested in checking out one set right here in LA, may we recommend the show BOSCH?

The Amazon Prime series is based on several books by novelist Michael Connelly about a disgruntled detective named Harry Bosch.

When we first meet him, Bosch is under investigation after fatally shooting a suspect. 

It's an all-too familiar scenario that many real law enforcement and civilians alike are acutely aware of. And it's something that the team felt a responsibility to handle with respect. Titus Welliver, who plays the titular character, will explain how.

Welliver recently dropped by our studio to talk more about the second season of the show and why he has a penchant for playing more serious characters.
