ITV gave up producing decent programming years ago.
It's all just lowest-intelligence fodder now to break-up the adverts.

I don't think I've ever watched one to the end; they send me to sleep and I love them but NOT in mid afternoon please ITV.
veritas
I love it but hasn't everyone in the bloody village and surrounding areas been murdered ?

You see FC - that is the beauty of Midsomer - it is like watching an Am Dram on your TV which for many people is a quaint English custom.
It is very stress relieving because it is totally unreal. No one would ever in a beautiful village or small town ever run amok and kill loads of people ( Cumbria excluded and Hungerford and Dumblane ) etc etc. But not in such a TWEE way.
Drama is about escapism - and with a nice drink and few olives or Tyrells crisps Midsomer is the perfect TV programme for an evening. It is like wearing an old jumper that you love.

Midsomer Murders is appalling. It's like some quaint English sitcom but without the laughs.I am sure in one episode I watched four people were murdered at the village fete by someone with a bow and arrow...cue the vicar and lots of middle class ladies saying 'how frightful.' I have seen more convincing am dram productions.
