Midsomer Murders (TV)
Approx length: 142 episodes of 1 hour 30 each/ 12780 minutes
Where to find it (If giving links, please only link to legal sources. You may want to encourage people to contact you directly if they are having trouble finding a canon and you can give them tips): https://www.justwatch.com/us/tv-show/midsomer-murders. You can change the country to your own to see if it's there! If not, you can find it on google.
What is it, in summary? A long-running murder mystery with so much heart and humour. And amazing characters!
What do you love about it? Not toally sure, honestly. I think I just love trying to figure out the crimes? As well as the characters! Not only is the main cast super charming, I also love most of the different characters specific to 1 or 2 episodes!
What sort of things are you likely to request for it? Murder mysteries, stuff between hte main characters, letting characters who never met do so, post-epsisode studff for "Henry Marwood"... the works!
Are there sections of canon (rather than the whole canon) that can be consumed by themselves to fulfil your requests, or that showcase particular characters and relationships? Yes! Not all episodes are needed for my requests! For my Henry Marwood/OPeggy Aynscombe request, only season 9 episode 5 (Four Funerals and a Wedding) is needed. Seasons with Charlie Nelson= 16-18. Jamie Winter= 19 onwards. Ben Jones= 9-15. John Barnaby= 14 onwards. So you can watch whichever episodes in that space to learn about my requested characters!
Content notes (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence) - this is at your discretion and is not expected to be comprehensive: No warnings for my Henry/Peggy request (season 9 episode 5), but show in general can have that. It's a murder show, but not a super gory one! We might see someone stabbed, but they don't show when someone's head was cut off (ironically enough played by the guy playing Henry Marwood, years before he played Henry). Episode 1 has full on incet, but that's not needded for my requests!
