When a crime lacks meaning, direction and conventional structure, who you gonna call? Sam Beckett.

During the 1970s, Samuel Beckett was living in Paris, taking occasional breaks from writing to polish his Nobel Prize.  But what if he spent some time fighting crime on the side?

Beckett imagines the author as a hard-nosed investigator of crimes of an absurd nature. He even has sidekicks in Andre the Giant, Jean Paul Sartre and Jean Cocteau. 

Hopefully RTE will see sense and commission a full series.
