The series needs no introduction, does it? My only question is why do people continue to live in Midsomer? It’s not a quiet little village, is it?

Republic of Doyle

The last series to check out is Republic of Doyle. Season 4 is available this month, and it continues to focus on the dysfunctional Doyle family. The father and son PI firm continues to investigate cases, but the family doesn’t have it all together personally.
