THE FUSE

Based on Carl Hiaasen’s 1987 novel, “Double Whammy,” “Elementary” creator Rob Doherty’s latest drama, ABC’s “RJ Decker,” is a solid crime procedural with an unlikely investigator at its center. This series follows RJ (Scott Speedman), a former photojournalist trying to find his bearings after his release from prison. Unfortunately, his job at the newspaper is no longer an option, so RJ launches a fledgling private-investigation business, where he looks into some of the strangest cases in South Florida. Though the show’s structure is rather run-of-the-mill despite some very bizarre crimes, the characters keep this series buoyant. (“RJ Decker” is now the second Hiaasen series about a P.I. on television, joining Apple TV’s Vince Vaughn-starrer “Bad Monkey.”)
