Warming up to Death In Paradise

I like british murder mysteries where you don't know the killer until the end. I was resisting DIP bc its on a Caribbean Island, but its starting to grow on me. Anybody else enjoy it? I like the tall, redheaded detective the best. I think later thetes an Irish one

We used to see it on Sat night but now it’s on another cable channel so I miss it. I’m hoping newer shows come to our PBS station.

I also like red-haired Humphrey (Kris Marshall) but I think my favorite was Richard (Ben Miller). The Irish detective, Jack Mooney (Ardal O'Hanlon) was also fun. I'm looking forward to Don Gilet as detective Mervin Wilson
