Thanks Kyle

I'm in on the kudo's for this series. The Brits have done and keep doing the best crime drama around. Waaaayyyy better writing and acting than any North American series. The first few seasons of "Law & Order C.I. were pretty good with Vincent D'Onofrio as Det. Goran who was at least eccentric and intelligent. But all the shitty CSI franchises, Cold Case based shows don't cut it. Here's some of my fave brit-tv

Prime Suspect-One final series to air on PBS this fall
I've got several of these I have yet to watch. Heard it was good

Cracker-The original with Robbie Coltrane, not the bastardized US version

Inspector Morse

A Touch Of Frost

Wire In the Blood

Touching Evil

Inspector Lyndley Mysteries-new episodes soon on PBS

Second Sight

P.D. James Commander Dalgleish-on PBS now

Murphy's Law

House of Cards/ To Play The King *****highly reccommended
