Review title: Peter Outerbridge is great and stories have human interest angle that makes this period mystery come alive.
Product review: Great show with Peter Outerbridge as Murdoch, much, much better than later Murdoch series which lacks human interest or fails when it tries. Normally I am put off by injection of personal lives of detectives into the shows, but this is an exception, perhaps because it is a period piece (about 1900).Subsequent series is okay, but the second Murdoch series lacks true to life performances, which are required for what is supposed to be a realistic show. Yannick is okay. This show is popular and I've seen six episodes. Better than most t.v. cop serieses, but could be so much better. WRiting is probably the problem-also very low production values--little money for sets and extras. This is usually okay, but in this show, being a period piece, we need better sets etc. Still, if you have Netflix and don't have to buy the dvd's this show is worth watching.
