The Mezzanine

Flist, I need to be stern with you.

*looks stern*

I rely on your wondrous wisdom in finding me new television. In the past, you have been very helpful in this regard. You have led me to many new shows, such as Sarah Connor Chronicles, Heroes, Warehouse 13, Dresden Files, Avatar, Battlestar Galactica, Community, Castle, and Leverage. This has been a valuable service, and I appreciate it.

So. WHY did no-one mention the Murdoch Mysteries? Not once have I heard effusive praise, episode reviews, or even icon posts! What is going on?! Why haven't you mentioned this spectacular dream of a show to me???

So... Murdoch Mysteries. Best crime show this decade, or best crime show ever?

For those of you who have failed to encounter this gem - and hence failed to enthuse at me (I haven't let you off the hook yet) - it's a crime show, with a Canadian detective and a forensics team, solving murders throughout Toronto... in the 1890s. When forensics involves this newfangled invention called fingerprints, and even the occasional telephone call!

It's so much fun.


Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a whole lot of tv to watch.
