World Cup of Detective/Crime Series (Final post 249)

What about that show about the Welsh woman whose husband went missing because he was a criminal and then it got really boring and then they somehow made another series of it?

Columbo all the way.

I just can’t fathom how you let this happen.

I dunno…you try and do something nice…

think you should run them as a double ticket, since the wire is essentially the american remake of the bill

Does Morse include Lewis and Endeavour, too?

(The most recent series of Endeavour was brilliant)

Yes. Sorry, so many things missed! I’ll clarify in the next round.

I mean he’s fine, but his show is just him, a smug smelly man slowly finding out what we already knew in the first scene

One of the good ones was on last weekend (A Friend In Deed), featuring the best ‘gotcha!’ moment.

(the one where he rents the apartment at the end to catch the assistant commissioner planting evidence)

Might print this wrong, cursed take so I can burn a physical copy of it

After Sherlock, Lewis is the best British crime for me in no small part because I fancy Hathaway.

Also really loved The Fall. So DARK.

Not massively into Scandi noir for some reason

Admission: I watched all of Homicide again a few years ago an it wasn’t as good as I remember it really.

there’s too many of them?
that’s one way of looking at it, another way of looking at it is, people like them, let’s make some polls
