Father Brown
Death In Paradise
Almost Paradise (It may be off now)
Private Eyes (It may be off now)
Doctor Blake Mysteries
Midsomer Murders
Elementary (off the air although they run reruns all day Sunday)
Commercial TV has become stupid. They will show two or three new episodes and then nothing for 3 months except reruns and then do it again. Most of the above are PBS shows and are British, Canadian and French
I like the British crime shows because they solve the crimes by deduction and no one shoots the bad guys ever. Although I must say Father Brown, Midsomer Murders, Death In Paradise all take place in very small towns but seem to have a lot of murders

My parents watch Father Brown. And my dad likes a show called Poirot. I found him watching Poirot one day and I laughed at him and asked him what he was watching. And he told me Poirot. And Im looking at it and I say - "French?" And he is like - "No no its Poirot is good". Apparently it is a British show based on Agatha Christie books. And Poirot is Belgian not French.
The only crime mystery show I have ever watched and liked is Columbo. I used to watch it when I was a kid.
edit - My parents love a British show called Doc Martin. I dont think its a crime show - its about a doctor.

Rome is a great TV series, was slated to run 5 years, but costs and declining viewership stopped it.
I have the two year collection, a nice addition to my 425 DVD collection, and around 200 VHS pile.

"Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. Those who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again." Ronald Reagan
