Summary
Detective Alex Drake wakes in a mysterious 1980s police station with no memory of how she got there and unsure if it's real or an afterlife. She works alongside other detectives to solve cases while attempting to uncover the truth about her situation and past. The series reveals itself to be a supernatural journey of self-discovery and redemption.
Ashes to Ashes is a 2008 crime, drama and fantasy television series. A typical episode runs 45 minutes. It was made in the United Kingdom.
Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 1,359 2000s television series, not against the whole corpus. A second review pool sits behind it as well: 5 Rotten Tomatoes reviewers clear the same calibration test, and Rankquant scores them separately. Only 61 of its IMDb reviewers rate with enough spread for a personal baseline to be measured, so the calibrated figure rests on a thin sample; a broader pool of 66 reviewers with at least two reviews feeds the raw-average track.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this title against every other title those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — a 7/10 from a hard grader sits well above their average, while a 7/10 from a generous grader sits below theirs. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a raw average.
- Global percentile
- Where Ashes to Ashes lands against every title we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — titles of the same format released in the same decade. A 1970s film is judged against 1970s films, not against last year's streaming series. Ranked against TV Series · 2000s (1,360 titles).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each title keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 61.
