Frequentist & Bayes

From the creators of Skewlock (a show about a serial killer who skews people to death, and is generally skewed to one side in all aspects of life) comes a new detective show and how statistics can help solve crimes.

Frequentist is an old fashioned detective, relying heavily on long run behaviour, and generally shunning any means of technology.

Bayes is an up and coming, young modern detective who is very with technology, going much more on gut feeling and updating his beliefs with every ounce of new evidence.

The two are unexpectedly paired up (much to their initial annoyance) and despite their polar opposite characteristics and approaches, manage to solve crimes together!
