Just a Reminder: Midsomer Murders, Season 24 Starts Today!!! Enjoy. Alas, only 4 episodes.
I love Midsomer Murders, and I confess that I've seen the entire series at least twice, probably more. Midsomer Murders is a quirky series with imaginative murder scenes and weapons. If that sounds dark, I will tell you it isn't. I think of this series as one of the best mystery series on TV..not gritty, not scary.. just great acting, lovely scenery, and plots. Of course, I wouldn't want to live in the county of Midsomer. Way too many murders for my taste. It's Cabot Cove on steroids.
Midsomer Murders, Season 24, premieres on AcornTV on December 4.
Midsomer Murders is one of the longest-running mysteries currently still airing. It first aired in 1997 (first with John Nettles as DCI Tom Barnaby, then with Neil Dudgeon as DCI John Barnaby). The series is based on Caroline Graham's Chief Inspector Barnaby novels. The series is set in the fictional Midsomer County, and follows two different DCI Barnabys as they solve quirky murders occurring in lovely small villages. It's mystery 'lite', and the murders often require some suspension of disbelief. I'm o.k. with that.

If you're like me, you felt short-changed by Midsomer Murders, Series 19, Part 1 that aired on AcornTV recently. There were only 4 episodes. But now, starting July 17, there will be 2 more episodes. AcornTV is calling it Midsomer Murders, Series 19, Part 2. Not sure why there was a delay or why there are only 2 episodes this time around, but I've seen them both, and they're great. O.K. this series can never go wrong in my opinion. It's so entertaining, and I enjoy the 'guest' stars. The two new feature-length episodes include Death by Persuasion and The Curse of the Ninth. They both star Neil Dudgeon as Detective Chief Inspector John Barnaby.
