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 love British detective/murder shows. There are many more that rate higher than this one. But, this was a delight to watch. I am a big Kris Marshall fan and the"ginger beanpole" did not disappoint. My favorite character though was DCI Turner played brilliantly by Tim Woodward. He was witty and quick with responses and I loved when he called Laura Main, DC Alison Bain the "Scottish girl". His character was well written and I wish he had had more screen time.

Murder City could be revived today with new characters and new stories. But, the writing should remain the same. The witty banter between the main characters is perfect!

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.

Murder city is the best crime show that Australia has ever shown. Thank you channel seven. It began at 11.00pm every Saturday. I did not miss one episode even though it was on quite late. That is how much I LOVED this show.

Kris Marshall's character, Luke stone, is very well acted. He is an unique and very talented actor. Before watching Murder City i had never heard of Kris, even though i watched Doctor Zhivago (great movie) but after watching this show he was up with my favorite actors such as Edward Norton and Paul Neumann.

This show is not a typical American(not that some of them are not good) crime show but a unique, REALISTC and very informative series. While in some situations the mood of the show may be depressing, just like in any crime show, it is also very funny, unlike other shows.

Unfortunately, the show is not on anymore. It was just stopped at once without a reason or warning. So please put it back on!!!!!

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
