Is anyone else hooked on the CBC's Murdoch Mysteries?

Over the past 4-5 months, we’ve binged our way from S1/E1 through S10/E11. The characters seem to have magical powers, because we’re under their spell!

And the fact that Murdoch invented just about every modern convenience is kinda humorous. Crabtree sees the future of it all too...

And enjoyed it tremendously.

Don’t watch it anymore, just because there is so much else to watch.

Just wanted to add:

For those who enjoy Canadian themed shows, don’t miss “Anne With an ‘E’ “ ; I think it’s on Netflix?

Excellent show that sadly had to wrap its final season abruptly due to COVID. (Numerous storylines and character arcs rapidly resolved in literally the final 5-10 minutes of the final episode)

Characters a lot more forward thinking about lbgtq+, abortion, women's rights in early 1900s.

Especially like that they mike Edison look like a money grubbing businessman and fake inventor.

We've watched all seasons and episodes available on PBS Passport. Nice mixture of mystery and comedy.
