Review

Delightful in a murderously charming way -- Leonard Maltin's Movie Crazy

Good, clean fun is what you're guaranteed. -- San Francisco Chronicle

Sheer TV gold -- Entertainment Today

Showing that if a story is well written and the acting is good less can be more. -- Shakefire

Still one of the best of the breed -- Wilmington on DVD

Still tops thanks to smart scripts, great casts and the charm of leading man John Nettles. -- PaperMag.com

The show just keeps chugging along with clever, sometimes rather perverse, murders and just enough wry humor to keep the audience smiling. -- Deseret News (UT)

Wonderful entertainment. -- EInsiders
