Review :
the Eyes of Murdoch
I 'discovered' this series about 8 months ago and can not get enough of it. The stars of this program, although unknown to most Americans are well known and appreciated in Canada, where this series originated and was filmed, for the most part. The often humorous references to the beginnings of many inventions that Murdoch either builds or works with the inventors on, are wonderful. Yannick Bisson plays Murdoch and heads a terrific cast. All kinds of speech accents flourish throughout the dialogue since many of the men and women who lived in Toronto at that time were immigrants from 'across the pond' and are in fact in real life. The story lines always are full of tongue in cheek humor, and subplots as these characters build not only relationships with one another, but with the viewer. I feel like I know these folks in real life, and with few exceptions, would love having them as neighbors. One of the things I like most is the constant politeness of the speech used, as well as what my...
Forensic Detection In 19th Century Canada
I recently came across The Murdoch Mysteries after seeing Geraint Wyn Davies portray Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in an episode from the first season. With two of my favorites so combined, I had to look further into this very intriguing historical crime drama. To date, I have watched most of the series, and while I was lukewarm about some of the earlier episodes, did stick with it and now find the scripting and plots to be stronger with each ensuing season. Instead of losing steam, Murdoch Mysteries is gaining it, not only in terms of solid story lines but in the development of the characters, who are fleshed out and exude true personality. Speaking of which, Dr Ogden fans should find she sparkles better than ever here.

Never mind there are innumerable crime dramas to choose from, with most of them being pale intimations or knock-offs so that despite being an avid mystery reader, I rarely watch any of them. There is nothing cliched or trite about Murdoch Mysteries. It offers...
Season 6 is Superior FUN 19th century historical crime
Awesome period sets & costumes. Realistically gritty. Multiple plots in an 1899 Victorian Canada historical suspense & crime drama. Includes fictional unveiling of then-new inventions. Murdoch's path often crosses an historic personality. Charming entertainment amidst suspense.
Older episodes are combined in a box catch-up set.
Murdoch Mysteries Collection: Seasons 1-4
Season 6 views a stand-alone, but you DO WANT every episode.

Yannick Bisson's leading role is rejoined with his boss, Brackenreid (Thomas Craig), Crabtree (Jonny Harris), Dr. Ogden (Helen Joy), Higgins (Lachlan Murdoch), & sexy Dr. Grace (Georgina Reilly).

Review :
Murdoch Mysteries
This is an AWESOME series! Canadian TV has produced a wonderful murder mystery series that takes place in Victorian times, presenting social issues and lots and lots of early scientific methods for solving crimes. The actors in this series account for one of the best ensemble casts that I've ever seen. Our entire family views this series, over and over again, and we sincerely hope that it does not see cancellation for many years to come!

Awesome & fun TV series
I was introduced to Murdoch Mysteries through my Amazon Prime account. I absolutely fell in love with the series and its characters. Set in Victorian Canada, the TV show revolves around 4 main characters and their ability to work together to solve murder mysteries. The program is a little whimsical, a bit humorous, and of course has a little romance, too; something for the whole family to enjoy. I highly recommend it!

One of the Best
Murdoch Mysteries is a very enjoyable 'period piece' Television series (1890's Toronto). There's a little history, a little humor, a little romance, a little scientific discovery (late 1890's style) and lots of Mystery. Yannick Bisson (Detective Murdoch), Thomas Craig (his boss, Inspector Brackenreid), Jonny Harris (Murdoch's assistant and partner Constable George Crabtree) and Hélène Joy ( the coroner and love interest... Doctor Julia Ogden) are endearing characters and perfectly cast for their rolls.

We came rather late to this series.... and have found 'Murdoch' to be one of the 'best.' It's right up there with Poirot, Midsomer, Foyle's War, to name just a few. We've typically had to head across the Atlantic to BBC/ITV for good mystery TV. Who knew that our neighbors to the North were doing such a stellar job with this series? Highly recommended...

Review :
Murdoch Mysteries needs to cross the US Border in a big way!!!!
Murdoch Mysteries aka the Artful Detective on the Ovation Channel is the best show on TV!! I love this show it's just great. Good story lines, superb acting and great scenery. All around good show - minus all the usual violence. Even though Detective Murdoch works only homicide cases - the murder is the final result of a truly great script. Every season is just marvelous!!!

Awesome show!
This is truly one of the best T.V shows out there!!! I love every one of them. I can't wait to see what happens next! Great job to the producers.

1901 Toronto Is the Place To Be - For Murder! Great DVD/BluRay Special Features!
Go back to 1901 Toronto, Canada and visit Police Station No. 4. This is a world undergoing massive changes and science is really coming into its own. I love the series for its tons of comedy. And, of course, lots of murders.

In Season 7 you get 18 episodes averaging 44 minutes in length each, for a total of 792 minutes of wonderful murder mysteries. "Murdoch Mysteries" is a hybrid. It's a police procedural, because your protagonists are policemen. But it takes place in a time when forensic science is in its infancy. So a lot of murders are solved by good old intuition and attention to detail, as is the way in an amateur sleuth series. The historical tidbits are fascinating.

If nothing else, you will keep coming back for the characters. In particular, Constable Crabtree is a favorite, as he lends a lot of the comic touch. Totally sincere and dependable, he also loves conspiracy theories and is such fun to watch.

Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Shepherd (Neill Rea, Go Girls) arrives on assignment in Brokenwood, a small town where memories-and animosities- run deep. He's an experienced cop with a 1971 "classic" car, a collection of country music cassettes, and an indeterminate number of ex-wives. The new woman in his life is his assistant, Detective Kristin Sims (Fern Sutherland, The Almighty Johnsons), a by-the-book investigator nearly 20 years younger than her boss's car, who quickly has to get used to his lone-wolf ways.

As Shepherd adapts to the slower pace of life away from the city, he soon discovers that Brokenwood is a place of secrets and suspicions. Everyone and everything is connected, and the serenity of the countryside can easily be shattered by violence and death.

Filmed amid the beautiful landscape of New Zealand's North Island, these four feature-length mysteries show that murder can haunt even the most idyllic locations.

Review :
Toodle-pip!
If you go by mystery TV shows, then just about every city or town in America and the UK has elaborately-murdered corpses cropping up all over the place.

So why should New Zealand be denied the fun? Hence we get "The Brokenwood Mysteries," which focuses on a pleasant little down in the land of the long white cloud that just happens to have a number of mysterious corpses. While the first season of this series isn't dramatically different from other shows like "Midsomer Murders," it has a pleasantly languid air and a quirky side that sets it apart.

In "Blood and Water," Detective Inspector Mike Shepherd (Neill Rea) is sent to the rural town of Brokenwood to investigate an alcoholic farmer found dead in the river. Since the dead man was commonly considered to be an abusive beast who probably murdered his own wife, everyone assumes that he simply committed suicide... but Shepherd isn't convinced. As he digs deeper into the town's ugly little...
This New Zealand crime drama really drew me in. It has not been shown on US TV (yet)- NO SPOILERS in this review
I'm a huge fan of what are called "procedural crime shows", where a crime is committed and you watch the detective (or police officer) solve the crime by putting the pieces together. Some of the best are those produced for British, Australian or Canadian TV. This may be the first one from New Zealand that I've seen. It snuck up on my and I was hooked.

If you've read my other "TV mystery" reviews, you know that I do not believe in "spoilers" so you won't find any in this review and I'll try to provide info that will help you decide if the show is for you, but not spoil any of the enjoyment. (After all, it wouldn't be a "mystery" then, would it?)
The series aired in New Zealand in 2014 and may, or may not, have had commercials. Each of the four episodes runs from 91 to 95 minutes and each is on a separate DVD. Each story uses the same format: A murder is committed in the opening moments and nearly always has at least three obvious...
Charming, not brilliant.
This is a perfectly charming, though not brilliant, police procedural. The lead detective is quirky, the pretty girl sergeant is smart and not a bit afraid of her boss. The locale is New Zealand, so don't expect to understand a word they say without captioning, as the New Zealand accent is unique and absolutely not a bit OZ-like. (Well, maybe a bit.) The point is, it is a lot of fun, well made, interesting characters, interesting crimes. More "Midsommer Murders" than "Foyle's War," but that ain't a bad thing. Watch it.

A TRUE review of the Fantastic Murdoch Mysteries Collection
The Collection IS fantastic. SIX star worthy.

Murdoch Mysteries Collection is truly one of the finest Historical Crime TV series on TV, and it continues now with Season 5 on DVD, and season 6 is also a future reality. All wonderful news for fans of this show.
IF you have not seen any, this Collection is the way to buy at a lower price. Each of the seasons are available individually, but at a significant higher price than what this listing on Amazon is asking at present, being $111.99. Original retail was $239.96. Get them and watch in any order, but watch.

It's all about a Toronto detective from late 1890's who manages to use inventive forensic modes now common in today's crime solving venue. Historic aspects of the show are as good as period sets and costuming. Historical personalities occasionally cross paths with Murdoch (Yannick Bisson). Novel adaptations of Maureen Jennings' writing, this has become a show demanded for continuation. Always intriguing,...
Oh how I LOVE this show!
I absolutely adore Murdoch Mysteries! Nearly every episode is enchanting and clever, and the characters are like good friends (except for Julia, who is like a cheese grater on my nerves). The detectives use old-fashioned C.S.I. type investigative techniques (while making little jokes to the modern audience about it), and there are real-life characters such as H.G. Wells and Nikola Tesla on some of the episodes, since they were alive during the time period in which the show takes place. I gobbled up the first 5 seasons as if they were gourmet Fettucini Alfredo, and now I'm going to get my garlic bread (season 6). I can hardly wait to devour it!

My Favorite T.V. Drama Series Ever
When we signed up for Netflex I scanned all the titles and chose this one because I like the Victorian Era. What I didn't count on was how much I would enjoy this series. I asked my husband to watch it with me because we never agree on what to watch (he's into all those CSI type shows). We both loved it from the start. The set designs, the period costumes, the story lines, the early forensic investigations and most of all the personalities and interactions of all the main characters who work in a Toronto police station during the late 1800's. We couldn't wait until we watched the next episode. When I realized that Netflex would no longer show Murdoch Mysteries (they only aired Seasons 1-3 until early July of 2013), I searched Amazon and ordered this collection and Season 5. You can be certain that I will be looking forward to Season 6 (2012-2013) and Season 7 (2013-2014) . I only hope that Murdoch Mysteries continues for a long time. This program is produced by CBS in Canada;...

Miss Phryne Fisher (Essie Davis, Girl with a Pearl Earring) is back with more intriguing mysteries and exquisite fashion. A private detective in 1920s Melbourne, Phryne has a knack for being in the right place at the right time—and she’s usually armed with the right weapon. Aided by her maid, Dorothy “Dot” Williams (Ashleigh Cummings, Tomorrow, When the War Began), Phryne ventures from the city’s mansions to its brothels, gaining admirers and enemies along the way.

Often assisting their investigations are Detective Inspector Jack Robinson (Nathan Page, The Secret Life of Us) and Constable Hugh Collins (Hugo Johnstone-Burt, Cloudstreet). Jack finds Phryne’s eager interest in his cases exasperating, but he comes to rely on her crime-solving instincts—and is increasingly captivated by her other charms. John Noble (Fringe, Sleepy Hollow) guest stars in this series of the hit Australian drama.

Review :
SEXY and mysterious and she stars in a crime series
A stellar Season 1; Season 2 is as Deco-delicious as the first.
Self-indulgent flapper Miss Fisher and her world are Hotsy-Totsy. Nifty! Kerry Greenwood, who's novels are adapted, calls this TV series "Perfect". Sets -locations- costumes -props, all the Bees Knees. Worth more than 5-stars, like Poirot, Downton Abbey, and Midsomer Murders. Ritzy 1920s Jazz included.
Flapper Period Bliss! I'm hoping for a ten-season run.

Phryne Fisher was a dame, brisk, but also innately kind, wealthy but hasn't lost the memory of her past poverty. She was heartwarming, sexy, funny, gutsy, intelligent, and late 29s modern-lady perfection. This arrogant, brash, flirt carried a .38, a diaphragm, and was a kleptomaniac with crime scene evidence items. Phryne (pronounced Fry-nee) was spiffily played by Essie Davis (Girl with a Pearl Earring). A PI, always a step ahead of the local cops, not unlike Poirot, Miss Marple, and Sherlock. Cops DI Jack (Nathan Page) and Constable Hugh (Hugo...
Please don't let it end!
The charm of this delightful series can be summed up by the following dialogue:

"There's been a murder, Mr. Butler."
"Does that mean there'll be one less for dinner?"

or how about:

(referring to Phryne [that's FRY-nee] on the telephone)
"It's Miss Fisher. She's on holiday again."
"Any murders yet?"
"Just one, sir."

I love it.

The first series of MISS FISHER'S MURDER MYSTERIES was an absolute delight. The Greta Garbo/Jean Harlow hybrid that IS the ineffable Essie Davis as Miss Phryne Fisher is back and in this reviewer's opinion, Series 2 is even better!

This outstanding Australian series is a breath of fresh air in the Detective/Mystery genre for a number of reasons: the acting, the scripting, the wit and taste in every aspect of production. If I had to single out one element that is perhaps the defining feature of this program, it would be the absolute...
The Sexiest Detective is back (even sexier) and even better jazz score this time. Review includes Bonus Features but NO SPOILERS
First a note: If you are coming to this review but have not watched Season/Series One, PLEASE go back to Season One and watch that first. It will put things in a better perspective to enjoy what has become my favorite mystery series (among many!). Really. Trust me. You can see my review of Series One here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R314SAGWHSEPCE/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B00A27O5AW and I promise - ”NO SPOILERS” (I hate them!)

Now that I’ve encouraged you to start with Series One, I’ll turn my attention to this product – I don't see the BD version listed on Amazon yet - The actual release date is May 27th - I was provided a review copy by the distributor - but Amazon usually combines DVD and BD versions anyway. The Bluray of Series Two. There are a few reasons to get the BD versus the standard DVD and watching it on Amazon Instant or one of the streaming services.

The acclaimed detective series returns with more mysteries set in the uncertain days at the beginning of the Cold War. In 1946 London, former DCS Christopher Foyle (Michael Kitchen, Out of Africa) now employs his unerring investigative skills on behalf of MI5, assisted by his ever-faithful driver, Sam Wainwright (Honeysuckle Weeks, My Brother Tom).

Also starring Daniel Weyman (Great Expectations), Ellie Haddington (Life Begins), Tim McMullan (The Woman in Black), Jeremy Swift (Oliver Twist), and Rupert Vansittart (Holy Flying Circus), with two-time Emmy® and Golden Globe® nominee John Mahoney (Frasier) as a guest star.

Review :
The acting is wonderful and unlike some of the other British series
This series is incredible. The acting is wonderful and unlike some of the other British series, an American can understand what's being said. Foyle is a combination of Sherlock Holmes and Columbo. His driver, Honeysuckle Weeks is great. We want there to be more made. One of my favorite series of all time.

Best Brit Mystery Series
To my thinking, Foyle's War is the best of the best of Brit mysteries. The acting is superb and unlike many of the other series, I can understand the English they speak, for the most part. The fact that we get a lot of WWII history with it makes it a winner for me as I am a history buff. Well worth watching, again and again.

Blu-Ray/DVD Two Hours of Excellent Bonus Features - Historical Drama and Mystery at its Best!
It's 1946 and he's MR. Foyle now, retired from the police force and no longer a DCI. The tag line for Series 8 is "A New War, A New Enemy". The New War is the Cold War, which was in its infancy in 1946. However, as John Chapman, producer, says in Bonus Feature D, the 3 stories in this series "are really all about ripple effects" of WWII. The great war is hardly a distant memory. Soldiers are still abroad and rationing and shortages still bedevil the average Briton.

I enjoyed this series immensely, but it is true that the stories unfold more leisurely. Sometimes the murder mystery is almost forgotten for a while among the other things that are going on. But that's Almost. Loose ends are tied up and the historical background is amazing. The longer length of each episode allows great depth to the storylines and to the characters.

You get 3 mysteries totaling 276 minutes; that's a wonderful 92 minutes each. If you buy the series on discs, Set 8 has 3...

“Witty and elegant” —The Australian

Seen on public television

In 1920s Melbourne, the Honorable Phryne Fisher (Essie Davis, Girl with a Pearl Earring) is a thoroughly modern woman operating in a mostly male world. The glamorous “lady detective” goes about her work with a pistol close at hand—and, more often than not, a male admirer even closer.

To the dismay of Detective Inspector Jack Robinson (Nathan Page, The Secret Life of Us), Phryne’s investigations take her through back alleys, jazz clubs, and shady neighborhoods. Ignoring the dangers all around her, she glides through life determined to enjoy every moment. But beneath her devil-may-care attitude, Phryne hides ghosts from the past that continue to haunt her.

Gorgeously costumed and evocatively shot, Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries also stars Hugo Johnstone-Burt (Cloudstreet), Ashleigh Cummings (Tomorrow, When the War Began), Miriam Margolyes (Little Dorrit), and Nicholas Bell (Shine). Miranda Otto (The Lord of the Rings) guest stars.

Review :
Phryne's fans need have no fear
When I read Cocaine Blues, I fell hard for Phryne (FRY-KNEE) Fisher, Dot, the Butlers, Inspector Robinson (call me Jack) Bert and Cec and the rest of the characters in Kerry Greenwood's delightful series and have since read every Phryne I could get my hands on.

Imagine my joy when, through the miracle of Roku and an Acorn Premium membership, Miss Fisher's Mysteries showed up as a January-February offering and I realized that this was indeed MY Phryne! I've now, at great sacrifice of housekeeping and household nutrition, watched every episode in Season One. I can, without reservation, hereby pronounce Miss Fisher's Mysteries a triumph!

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation spared no expense in recreating the Melbourne of the late 1920s nor the luxurious accoutrements of Phryne's world from Hispano-Suiza, to steam train, to Phryne's spectacular wardrobe. Essie Davis is perfect; fully portraying the many facets of Phryne, champion of the underdog, sensuous...

The Honorable Phryne Fisher has a lot in common with Emma Peel. Smart, dresses to kill, athletic, sexy and courageous. And they both solve mysteries. Except Phryne (pronounced FRY-knee) lives in 1928 and her foes are more realistic than the I-vant-to-rule-the-world type usually found in "The Avengers".

We first meet Phryne disembarking at Melbourne, Australia. She almost immediately receives an engraved invitation to dine with her old friends, Lydia and John Andrews, and her indefatigable gossip of an aunt.

When Phryne arrives at the Andrews', it's just in time to see her host's body carried out on a police stretcher. According to Aunt Prudence, "It seems that John collapsed suddenly after a light breakfast of tea and kumquat marmalade toast. And the maid found him, purple in the face and cold to the touch on the bathroom floor."

Despite her well-heeled manner, Phryne hides a hardscrabble childhood spent in abject poverty, and is still haunted by the mysterious disappearance of her beloved sister Janey. It takes only a few moments after Phryne's arrival on the Melbourne dock for the murders and mysteries to start, but with her talent for attracting friends from all walks of life, including cab drivers Bert (Travis McMahon) and Cec (Anthony Sharpe), Mr Butler (Richard Bligh), Constable Hugh Collins (Hugo Johnstone-Burt), Aunt Prudence (Miriam Margolyes), Dr Mac (Tammy Macintosh) and new ward Jane (Ruby Rees Wemyss), Phryne is ready for...

For Detective Chief Inspector George Gently (Martin Shaw, Death in Holy Orders), the world is changing at a dizzying pace—economically, politically, socially, culturally. As the 1960s draw to a close and a new era beckons, he feels more and more estranged and ill-equipped to cope. But for Gently and his fellow officers, one thing remains constant in their northeast England beat: violent crime. In four all-new, feature-length episodes, Gently is again assisted in his crime-fighting duties by Detective Sergeant John Bacchus (Lee Ingleby, Place of Execution), who is up for promotion to inspector, and Constable Rachel Coles (Lisa McGrillis, Hebburn), who is preparing to take her sergeants exam. While Gently and Bacchus collaborate as usual in their investigations, both are harboring secrets from each other that threaten to bring their professional careers to an end. Compelling mysteries and superb performances continue to make this “one of the most successful detective dramas on British television” (Daily Express Saturday Magazine, UK).

Review :
Six star perfection WWII UK home front mystery/suspense
FOYLE'S WAR presents Brit Home Front war-life through poignant topics, compelling suspense, and many mirthful moments. It is a 1940-45 Southern country experience not to be missed. English WWII involvement and resulting life-style of the population away from the active war front when all England expects an eminent invasion from Germany.
3 episodes of Foyle's Post-War (summer 1945) are done in the same 6-YES, SIX-STAR excellence. Foyle longs for retirement, but it's not to be [great news for fans]. Period drama precision detailing history, drama, action, romance, mystery, and suspense

FOYLE'S WAR is also a series the best 21st century written TV murder mystery ever presented by creator/writer Anthony Horowitz. A modern classic for sure. Foyle's War is fiction, but so authentic to detail that this series is a MUST for historians.

Christopher Foyle (Michael Kitchen) is a cop who'd rather be on the front, not investigating Hastings crime. Milner (Anthony Howell)...
A good all-year-long gift!
Okay, first of all, I have always loved this series, the stories and the actors. I figured it would be a good gift to give to my mom. She enjoys the Masterpiece programs, and likes to watch them again and again, sometimes as a "marathon." However, my mom doesn't like me to spend money on NEW DVDs for her. So, I try to find them on ebay or at the Goodwill-type stores in town. Sometimes, however, I do buy them new. Then I open them up before I mail them to Mom, so they appear to be used.

When I saw the boxed set at this really good price, I knew I had to get it for Mom. When the they arrived at my house, I made them look used, and then I mailed Mom the first couple of series for Mothers Day. Later this month, the next couple series will go out for her birthday, and so on.

Yes, it's a tad deceitful, but Mom likes a good DVD and a good bargain, so, why not?

Kitchen is complete!
This has got to be the best all-around British series ever. Where can you get British comedy, history, mystery and drama all in the same series and in every episode? Kudos to Horowitz for pulling the plots together. Kitchen is the master of non-verbal expression. The cast is well chosen and they interact with their special attributes. I've watched the series a dozen times and I'm still finding new things. Although each episode is it's own entity, the character development grows with the series, so it help at one time to watch it from beginning to end.It's the best buy in town and you can't beat the price. I've purchased this series for some friends who didn't care for TV series and they ended up inviting their neighbors over once a week for a "Foyle's" party. Start your own Foyle's Fan Club.

This specific obcject Offer exceeded the anticipation, that one has developed into a amazing buy for myself personally, The theory came safely and also rapidly Vera, Set 5


Multi-award-winner Brenda Blethyn (Pride & Prejudice, Atonement) plays the maverick but brilliant Detective Chief Inspector Vera Stanhope in this mystery series based on Ann Cleeves’s bestselling crime fiction. From the streets of Newcastle to remote rural Northumberland, Stanhope tackles cases as diverse and wild as their settings: a deadly blaze at a vacation park on the windswept North Sea coast, the 30-year-old disappearance of a schoolgirl from a mining town, a corpse decomposing in a farm’s slurry tank, and the suspicious death of a family man in a multistory parking lot. As rumpled and caustic as ever, DCI Stanhope contends with a new assistant in Set 5. Detective Sergeant Aiden Healy (Kenny Doughty, Stella, Snowpiercer) is still recovering from an on-the-job trauma, but Vera shows little patience for his psychological scars. If their partnership is to work, Healy will quickly have to get accustomed to the sometimes unconventional methods his boss employs—to unearth the truth, crack a case, and catch a killer.


Review :
Vera We Hardly Know Ye
DCI Vera, played by Brenda Blethyn, is in her fifth year as a series. I like Vera a lot. She is overweight with mussed up hair, never wears make-up, dresses in old fashioned dresses with sweaters, sensible shoes and a god awful long coat with a dodgy hat. She drives an old Range Rover and is always in charge. She is good at her job, damn good, has been at it long enough that she has an instinct which serves her well. She gets her man or woman most of the time, because all of her cases involve murder.

This season the old trusted DI Joe Ashworth is gone. Joe played by David Leon, knew Vera well and her him. A mutual respect and I think a motherly love from Vera. He is onto better things, and Vera now has a new brash young man, DC Aiden Healy. Things are rough in the first couple of episodes but they seem to even out as time goes on. DC Kenny Lockhart, played by Jon Morrisey is still on board. And, we are introduce to several new players. Hopefully we will learn more about...
Indescribable Quality...
I just wanted to add my thoughts to the majority: "Vera" is one of the best contemporary mysteries developed and shown in the last decade or so; yes, there have been others that I've enjoyed, but I feel "Vera" has that indescribable quality that will enable it to run (and stream) for many a year to come.
'Nuff said... just watch one episode, and you will want to see every single one!

Vera is my all time favorite female detective
Vera is my all time favorite female detective, I love her witty charm and her straight forward personality. There's something about British TV, I can't get enough always looking for new shows to watch, I don't think I could ever make a top five list...love em!!!!!

Murdoch Mysteries gets better every season. Very exciting and suspenseful. The season starts with challenges for Inspector Brackenreid and ends with a cliffhanger for Geoge Crabtree.

It airs on the CBS in Canada, in the United States has run on PBS stations and is shown onOvation as THE ARTFUL DETECTIVE. And it seems to have one foot in the United Kingdom, as ITV, a British creator of TV material, gets a production credit. This time around, its star, Yannick Bisson, also gets a production credit. The series is based on the popular novels by Maureen Jennings. I received this as a review copy. It contains the long-awaited 100th episode, in which wedding bells ring for major characters. The box set contains five discs encompassing 18 episodes, approximately 792 minutes of entertainment, plus a 118 minute featurette of Making Murdoch, a 100th episode featurette, and a behind the scenes photo gallery.

ALL NEW EPISODES!

The English village mystery gets a contemporary spin in this hit British television series that has earned a worldwide following. Bucolic settings harbor macabre crimes and eccentric characters that are no match for DCI John Barnaby (Neil Dudgeon, Life of Riley) and his assistant, DS Charlie Nelson (Gwilym Lee, Land Girls). “Delightful in a murderously charming way” (Leonard Maltin’s Movie Crazy). Guest stars include Amanda Burton, Claire Bloom, Joe Absolom, Andrew Lee Potts, Claudie Blakley, and Clarke Peters.

THE MYSTERIES:

  • The Dagger Club—When a hot new manuscript is stolen and its cover illustrator murdered, Barnaby and Nelson wonder who would kill to get their hands on the book.
  • Murder by Magic—A magic trick gone wrong exposes simmering tensions between members of St. Cyprian’s Church and a local pagan group.
  • The Ballad of Midsomer County—When the head of the Lower Crosby Folk Festival is killed, the detectives must determine if the motive was financial or far more personal.
  • A Vintage Murder—Sabotage of a party at Midsomer Vinae Winery appears to be the latest attempt to discredit the vineyard—until a dead body turns up on the premises.



  • Review :
    Series 17 would be equivalent to "Set 26" in the old numbering system. It is new to DVD.
    In 2014 Acorn Home Video started re-numbering all of their series based on the original British sequencing & series breakdown. In the 'set' numbering system (which often split each series into two sets), this would be set #26. I am actually surprised set 25 was issued under that number as Acorn had already switched to the series numbers and set 25 was the entire series 16.

    To add more confusion, Acorn created special cheaper 3-disc sets for the big-box stores such as Costco. These have their own set numbers which can look like the regular disc sets, but have different episodes inside.

    Now as for the episodes, I think the new cast has found their rhythm here. The series as a whole lost some of it's charm several years ago, but the new cast is adding new life and forming their own new relationships.

    The series (seasons) are getting shorter each year, what was once 8 episode series under John Nettles has now been reduced down to 4.

    There's Something Missing
    I've been watching these on Acorn -- have seen 3 of 4 so far. The acting is still superb. Dudgeon is great as the new Inspector Barnaby and the rest of the ensemble are also excellent. The settings, as usual, are gorgeous. But something is missing. The plots seem artificial.Characters change without sufficient motivation. It's as if everyone's going through the motions, but without much feeling. I note that Brian True-May is gone, so perhaps that's what's missing. Don't get me wrong, these are still fun to watch, but this is (so far) one of the weakest seasons of Midsomer ever -- and I've watched and rewatched all of them. I also wonder whether they're planning to get Gwilym Lee his own show, or somehow transition him to Inspector here.

    The feel I have is of a great franchise that is running on its previous glory, with all the parts but weak execution. I really hope it's a temporary aberration -- I've loved Midsomer.

    Essie Davis (The Babadook, The Slap) returns as Miss Phryne Fisher, a “lady detective” from Melbourne with a fabulous sense of fun and a flair for solving crimes. In a country reemerging from the shadow of World War I, Phryne takes life in her stride—and murder, too. Detective Inspector Jack Robinson (Nathan Page, The Secret Life of Us) works alongside her, although she often outraces him to the crime scene. Despite Jack’s efforts to keep matters on a professional level, their playful partnership is growing more and more personal. In Series 3, Phryne and Jack’s developing relationship is matched by the on-again, off-again romance of Phryne’s assistant, “Dot” Williams (Ashleigh Cummings, Tomorrow, When the War Began), and Jack’s constable, Hugh Collins (Hugo Johnstone-Burt, San Andreas). But with the unexpected arrival of her father in Australia, Phryne recalls troubling incidents from her past—and contends with ominous affairs in the present.

    Spanning 25 years and the entire Poirot canon, David Suchet s iconic portrayal of Agatha Christie s famous Belgian detective has been hailed as one of TV s greatest achievements (Telegraph, U.K.). These 70 episodes of the hit mystery seen on public television are rich with period detail and feature some of film and television s brightest stars, including Michael Fassbender, Emily Blunt, Jessica Chastain, Damian Lewis, Tim Curry, Iain Glen, Christopher Eccleston, Aiden Gillen, Peter Capaldi, Lindsay Duncan, Hugh Bonneville, and many more.

    Follow Hercule Poirot and his little grey cells from his very first case to his final curtain call. This 33-disc set includes all 13 series of the beloved mystery, remastered and restored to original U.K. broadcast order.

    BONUS FEATURES: Being Poirot documentary: David Suchet reflects on 25 years as Poirot while filming his final episodes, plus bonus interviews with Suchet and Agatha Christie s grandson, Mathew Prichard (51 min.); Super Sleuths (47 min.): Documentary about the series featuring the stars and crew; David Suchet on the Orient Express (47 min.): A tour of the Orient Express and its history; behind-the-scenes featurette (46 min.), photo galleries, and production notes by David Suchet and Tim Curry; companion booklet with articles by David Suchet and Mathew Prichard; episode synopses; character profiles; information about Poirot; and Poirot s obituary


    Review :
    The Case of the Missing Details
    It is rarely argued that David Suchet is both refreshing and iconic as Agatha Christie's Poirot. In my opinion David Suchet's performance is like seeing Hurcule Poirot walk off the pages of the wonderful books by Agatha Christie and onto my Television Set. However, I wish to focus on this BEAUTIFUL collection rather than on Suchet's wonderful portrayal of Poirot.

    Amazon hasn't posted much about this collection and I bought it on faith that it would be well worth the money. Since there is still little said about the collection, I thought I would give people a head's up as to what they will be getting.

    This collection arrived in a Beautiful box measuring 4 and 1/4 inches deep 5 and 3/4 inches wide and 7 and 1/2 inches tall with a flip top lid and a front that folds open revealing four rather bulky blu-ray jewel cases. In side these four jewel cases the 28 disks are found; each labeled with the series number and disk number of that series. Jewel case one...
    Poirot: Complete Collection
    Where to begin. This box set, which includes every single episode and series broadcast on TV, is a very nice collection. The box, cases and CDs are very high quality and well finished, something which is lacking in many complete series box sets for other titles/box sets. The box set also includes two bonus discs about the making of the series and about the star of the show; David Suchet. The picture and sound quality seem to me to be very good quality and play flawlessly.

    Regarding the Poirot series itself, anyone considering buying this has probably seen some of them on TV or on Netflix and are likely very impressed with the quality of the acting, the clever writing, and the fidelity to the time period in which it is set. On Netflix there are currently only 6 of the 13 series available and so it is well worth buying this collection to watch and own all 13. The earlier series are shorter, episodic style mysteries which last about 60 minutes each. From about series 4...
    A great addition for any Agatha Christie (and David Suchet) fan
    This collection provides a complete collection of all of the David Suchet Poirot's from 1989-2014, including all of the special videos about the series: Being Poirot (62 minutes), an 18 minute interview with Suchet, a 33 minute interview with Mathew Prichard (Christie's grandson), Super Sleuths (47 minutes, a documentary on the series), David Suchet on the Orient Express (47 minutes), and a behind-the-scenes featurette (46 minutes), and another interview with David Suchet (19 minutes). It also includes a collector's guide with articles by David Suchet and Mathew Prichard, episode synopses, character profiles, information about Poirot and Poirot's obituary in the New York Times. If you don't have all of them, this is an easy way to obtain the complete collection. The series is an absolute delight, and my compliments to David Suchet for being THE Hercule Poirot.

    WHAT EVIL LURKS BEYOND THE WELL-TRIMMED HEDGES OF MIDSOMER…

    The cozy villages of Midsomer County reveal their most sinister secrets in these contemporary British television mysteries. Inspired by the novels of Caroline Graham, modern master of the English village mystery, the series stars Neil Dudgeon (Life of Riley) as the capable Detective Chief Inspector John Barnaby, with Gwilym Lee (Land Girls) as his new sidekick, Detective Sergeant Charlie Nelson. Guest stars include Michael Jayston, Sharon Small, Robert Bathurst, Ann Eleonora Jorgenson, and Hayley Mills.

    THE MYSTERIES
    The Christmas Haunting-New detective Charlie Nelson helps Barnaby investigate a stabbing at a haunted house.
    Let Us Prey-A series of murders mimics scenes on a medieval fresco in Midsomer St Claire.
    Wild Harvest-The death of a wealthy farmer leads the detectives to rotten dealings at a celebrity chef's restaurant.

    Review :
    Excellent Series
    I purchased this series from amazon UK in the Region 2/PAL version. All five episodes are excellent. The actor replacing Jason Hughes is very good and blends in smoothly with the rest of the cast. I really liked Jason Hughes (as DS Jones) and hated to see him leave but I think the new actor makes a good replacement. I think the running time for the series since John Nettles left is usually about 90 minutes whereas the original series with Mr. Nettles ran about 100 minutes. Even so these are excellent stories once you realize that Neil Dudgeon has different approach to the story and is not a Tom Barnaby clone. I was very happy to see the series continue. I don't get too concerned about run times as long as the show is entertaining and well done. I think Midsomer fans will be very well pleased with this set of mysteries.

    It's Still Great!
    The new DCI Barnaby continues to develop in this fine series. Barnaby's new Sergeant, Nelson, is an excellent addition. The relationship between Barnaby and his wife and dog is also on display here. All in all, a worthy continuation of one of the finest series ever on television. If you liked it before, you'll continue to like it here. One reviewer says this is supposed to be the last series. I certainly hope not! As long as Midsomer has people left to be murdered, I want to keep watching.

    Region 1 DVD/Bluray Extras For Show Worthy of 100 Episodes - a Great Mystery Series!
    "The Killings of Copenhagen" is the 100th Episode of a great mystery series, and the last story in Set 25. For this special event, the episode takes us back to Badger's Drift, the village which hosted the very first Midsomer Murder, in both the TV series (1997) and Caroline Graham's first Inspector Barnaby mystery novel (1987).

    Just before the start of this Set 25, Sergeant Benjamin Jones (played by Jason Hughes), who has been at Barnaby's side from 2005 to 2013, was promoted to Detective Inspector. It's nobody's fault but Barnaby's, because he recommended the promotion. But as Jones has left Midsomer for Brighton, Barnaby needs a new sergeant. This Set (which corresponds to the English Series 16) introduces DS Charlie Nelson. Young, active, and a city-boy who has to be introduced to village ways.

    I think Gwilym Lee does a good job stepping in as the new sergeant. He isn't Jones, he doesn't try to be - he is someone new. If you've been a faithful follower of...

    Mystery grows in the garden with this sleuthing female pair & SUBTITLES
    Ex-cop, Laura Thyme (Pam Ferris-`Little Dorrit' `Jane Eyre' `Darling Buds of May' `Middlemarch'), is a housewife who loses her husband to a younger woman. Rosemary Boxer (Felicity Kendal-`Edward the King' `Camomile Lawn'), lectures on horticulture, but looses her university job. An odd pairing, which began from very different pasts. Starting a business together makes sense till mystery, sometimes a death, appears around too many corners. Amateur sleuthing once again hits the British TV screen, not new, but this is definitely different. Not just for women. It's good mystery, good criminal policing, and of course beautiful scenic filming (not just England). Even the gardener's will like this action.
