Blue Murder: Complete Collection
DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:
Yes Yes Yes! The series is great; we can relate to our star detective and the fact that even as a law enforcer, she STILL has a private life. Plus, she’s NOT plastic. No flowing hair down her back as she chases down a criminal in high heel shoes, tight pants or (is it underwear?), and heavy eye make-up. How ridiculous. No. She’s great; the stories are real and I highly recommend Blue Murders. Great acting, too (almost forgot about that! Ha!) Flo-Florence Perlman
This is a solid British police procedural drama, set in the north of England. Caroline Quentin plays Janine Lewis, a DCI who manages a mainly male police unit and a chaotic family. There are obvious parallels to ‘Prime Suspect’, but with the lead character made much more warm and caring than the character played by Helen Mirren.The stories are fairly standard stuff, with Lewis and her crew building a picture of the crime and possible suspects. The acting is first-rate, as usual with British crime series, with interesting supporting characters revolving around Quentin. It’s a little more hard-boiled than ‘Midsomer Murders’, less intellectual than ‘Morse’ and less gloomy than ‘Frost’; right down the middle, in fact.- John D. Muir
Blue Murder is a fun and not too gruesome British detective series. It’s a few years old at this point, but still enjoyable. The promo language compares it to Jane Tennyson and Prime Suspect; it’s not quite in that league, but not much is.The complete series was very nicely priced and it arrived in good condition and promptly. I would use this company again- Brenda J Mottram
