The Murders

Some of the story lines are dumb - killing a man who has been obviously hurt badly enough not to comprehend anyone speaking to him....oh so shoot and kill him - WTF.

The show is fine, not great, not so bad that I run screaming.

As someone mentioned you don't have to start off with a boom but seriously you have to start with conceivable real situations. Actually while I thought someone would be fired for leaving their weapon in the car, I did find the 1st episode plausible. I just think this isn't the best show for the lead detective actor. I think her performance is OK as there is something missing, she's not quite hitting it. She could be better in a different role.

Not a very good show. This incompetent cop would have been demoted or fired in real life after the first episode. The police station is ridiculous. It's on the ground floor with huge windows facing out to the street. Anyone walking by can see right inside and view everything going on, including evidence boards.Absurd.

Reading the numerous pretentious quasi-critics among these reviews is more sad than funny. I like Canadian-style writing, particularly in their crime dramas, but I don't confuse them with the US/Hollywood spawn. Canada isn't the US, regardless of what that might or may not mean to the shallow US market, US-Canada are different societies, actually, as another form of diversity. As British drama varies from its US counterpart, Canada has its own style, and different isn't really a basis for better or worse, actually. Some of the best drama streaming on the internet is Canadian...with less chaff among the wheat than the US TV/movie market. It's often more entertaining with less neurosis than British or US counterparts. "The Murders" is quite good within its boundaries. Vancouver, BC, isn't Toronto, or Los Angeles, or New Orleans, which is not a good or bad thing...it's Vancouver and that works for this crime drama.

Good plot twists, solid performances especially from Jessica and Luvia. Love the sound track and Vancouver looks amazing in this show. I'm hooked

Canada what is going on? You have made some of my favourite police dramas in the past and then this year you make this and another one with a dog that is just as dull, boring and bland. #Where is the edginess, the drama, the humour, the sexual tension, where is ANYTHING to make either of these shows even remotely watchable. Is this modern tv? too frightened to do anything that even a single person may in some way possibly find offensive? Just plain boring.
