(3 out of 5 wands.)ĭeveloped for TV by: Dan Dworkin and Jay Beattieīased on Dan Brown’s international bestselling thriller “The Lost Symbol,” the series follows the early adventures of young Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon, who must solve a series of deadly puzzles to save his kidnapped mentor and thwart a chilling global conspiracy. However, with a total of ten episodes, there’s a lot of room for the show to develop into something deeply enjoyable.

But some questionable pacing choices and underdeveloped characters and ideas hold the series back a little. The central mystery is captivating enough. The first three episodes offer a promising start to this series – though, there’s also a lot of room for improvement. Adapting the third Langdon novel, Dan Brown’s The Lost Symbol proves once and for all that Robert Langdon belongs on TV.

Or, more accurately, NBCUniversal’s streaming service, Peacock. After five books and three movies, Dan Brown’s Robert Langdon series is finally hitting TV screens.
