Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

pepper tatum I watch it because it is the best in my lineup of shows to watch. I can count on it. No loud noises. No car crashes. No harm to animals.3 murders in the small county. Surprised anyone left after all those deaths. I Never predict the murderer. Like another viewer, I was concerned about the lack of people of color. Now there are more . Usually badly behaved. Last episode I watch on Netflix: one brother turned out to be the thief and one was the murderer. At least their dad's rabbit won the prize. After the white man's rabbit died.

shu-fen I don't when I happened to start watching this. The first time I watched it online, my eyes were caught by the green, green countryside, very tempting and pleasing.Yesterday evening, I just clicked into a certain episode ed on youtube, and found that this year it is carrying its 20th season. Amazing! And so, the countryside townsfolks continue to kill and people continue to die... And so...And so, "Midsomer Murders" is truly a very good way to show the world the luxuriant green countryside of the UK. Yet, in the past 19+ seasons, in total, I mean the grand total, how many got killed? There are always multiple deaths in one episode. Huh, 2000? If yes, wow, 100 for a season. That's why the detectives are so busy.

Charles Ray I began watching Midsomer Murders on a local NPR station (WETA-UK), when some of the older episodes were airing. Then, thanks to my son, I started watching it on Netflix. At first, it was just an interesting British mystery set in a rural area, but when I read some of the comments by original producer, Brian True-May as to why there were no characters of color in the series, I was a bit turned off, despite the fact that the stories were otherwise pretty well done. Then, True-May, as people of his ilk are prone to do, went a verbal step too far and was removed from the series. With the change, more characters of color began to appear, often in key roles, with no change in the essential direction of the show-and, in my opinion, the series is much the better for it. When John Nettles, the first DCI Barnaby, left the show, and was replaced by his cousin, played by Neil Dudgeon, I thought the series would lag, but was happily proved to be wrong. The new DCI Barnaby is as interesting in his own unique way, and Midsomer continues to be a part of England that, though I might like to visit, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't want to live--or die--there. If you like British mystery and cop shows, you can't go wrong with this one.

Parker Lewis There's a charm that Midsomer Murders evokes, and sure it's unrealistic (do English villages really have such high murder rates?!) it's a nice way to switch off from the demands of the day, and just to enjoy the plot lines. We know the most obvious suspect didn't do it, and the suspect who extols their innocence "I didn't kill him/her!!! because I was in Causton, etc" usually didn't do it. But that's the fun of the story lines.The green village scenery is always lovely in every episode, and you can imagine how cold it was for the actors as they do a fantastic job maintaining their composure whilst no doubt coping with freezing temperatures.There are some people who miss DCI Barnaby Mark 1, and he is missed although he mumbled his words sometimes. Funny thing is he had his chauvinistic (sexist?) moments at times - I him telling Constable Gail Stephens (much to her displeasure understandably) to get him a coffee - NOW! Really?! Okay, some may exonerate Barnaby as simply being "un-PC" (which I guess excuses a host of discourtesies) but really it was uncalled for. Still, I think the Barnaby-Jones partnership was the best. I don't have much time for Dan Scott (his character was in 2 seasons) but maybe he fitted the mould of the un- PC PC that a segment of fans bay for. Perhaps he can get a spin-off show where he's promoted to DCI in the East End of London where he can spout his un-PC comments towards any minority group that has the words "pride" and "festival". Perhaps he could be teamed up with a junior, female PC who is PC with squishy liberal views, allowing him to get the upper hand (and audience satisfaction) with any tete-a-tete with the junior PC. He could also light up a cigarette or three to prove his point.I do like DCI Barnaby Mark 2 and he's more respectful and gets straight to the point in a respectful manner.Having lived in the UK for several years, there really are "minorities" that live in English villages! Really!! Which I find it quite risible when die-hard Midsomer fans invoke the name of the beloved TV creator Brian True-May and claim that because Midsomer is the "last bastion of Englishness", it's ludicrous and "politically correct" to have minority (read people of color - wink!) popping up in Causton and the outlying villages. Never mind the fact that English villages don't have sky- high murder rates and we won't query that at all!
