Murder City

I find Murder City a very refreshing take on a crime drama. Right now, we have 3 different CSI's, among about 10 other crime shows on television at any given night, I have a hard time telling them apart. I agree that the interesting chemistry the lead characters have, not romantic, just that they really work well together, and it is actually believable that they would be working cases together.

Also, kudos to Kris Marshall, I am a huge fan of his work, My Family is on of my very favorite shows, when I saw that he was staring in this series, I knew I had to check it out. Now I'm hooked.

I love this 'smart' approach to a crime drama!!

I don't think it is the best ever murder mystery series I have seen, this is coming from someone who loves Inspector Morse, A Touch of Frost and Agatha Christie: Poirot. While not as good as the above titles, Murder City was interesting and actually above decent. There may be some draggy parts once in a while and in my opinion, this series should have lasted longer, but the story lines were suspenseful and gripping, and the writing was excellent. The series visually is very stylish, and the music is good. And I for one liked the acting, Amanda Donahoe is wonderful as always and Kris Marshall is delightful in his well-written role. I also really enjoyed the chemistry between the two. Overall, a very well done if short lived series. 9/10 Bethany Cox

This is the first tv series I can't determine the plot in 5 minutes.

BBC doesn't give their series a whole lot of chance even with a great cast that includes the more than capable Amanda Donahue and Kris Marshall. Two seasons wasn't near enough for me. Watch and judge for yourself if you are lucky enough to find this mystery/cop series playing somewhere. Nuff said.

I have watched them all and can't get enough. At first I thought, well it's no Happy Valley or a Scott and Bailey, but after a few episodes I was hooked. Bigger on crime than personality, and very interesting crimes each solved in its own episode. I am only sorry for myself that I have watched them all.
