Always fun and fascinating, I love this series.

I really like that it arrived quickly! It is in excellent condition.

The case containing the DVD's was cracked at the top and the catchers that holds the DVD's were worn which meant the DVD's would not stay in place plus the DVD case will not stay closed. Fortunately the DVD's look okay. As for the series Midsomer Murders is always a five. Midsomer Murders have been repacked 3 times. I rather have the original Series because they have the filmologies as a bonus. I encourage any seller to please list the episodes in their description because the series are renumbered each time so sometimes we wind up have to return a series because we already have it.

I've been a Midsomer fan since they were first broadcast in the US; I've found the later seasons available only on video, however. The series in it's 12th season is pretty much what it was in the beginning--a smart, down-to-earth Detective Chief Inspector in a delightful (and fictional) English village setting, solving the myriad murders that dispel the serenity of this idyllic place. Even though the series is set in modern times, viewers will surely get a feel of Agatha Christie's Miss Marple (think Miss Marple with a cell-phone). The characters are engaging and likable; we get a continuing story arc of the leading character's family--a delightful wife, a charming aspiring actress daughter--who often become involved in the cases at hand. It's all very entertaining! So if you have enjoyed Inspector Lewis, Inspector Morse, Jane Marple, et al, Midsomer adds nicely to the genre.

Excellent show. Very will written. Keeps you guessing until the end when the true culprit is revealed. My wife and I discovered Midsomer Murders on PBS a number of years ago and have been true fans of the show. Unfortunately, PBS is somewhat limited in the number of episodes that they show on the air. We were very happy to discover the we could watch ALL seasons and episodes with our Amazon subscription. We started watching at Season 1, Episode 1, and we are now in Season 13 and continuing forward. The series is well worth watching.

Extremely happy with this latest set of dvds. I've now gotten all of the midsomer murder series with John Nettles. Recieved them earlier than expected. The case had cracked and a few pieces of same were scattered in box...but the dvds were fine.

If you like really good British television...the Midsomer Murders are for you. The acting is just so good...my family and I have not seen a bad episode yet and we have been looking at the series from the beginning. It makes for a great night of television...the acting, the on location sights and the plots are just so much fun to look at. I highly recommend Midsomer Murders. I will miss the series when it ends.

If you like detective movies you will love this series.

Once again, quality actors flock to take part in Midsomer's macabre goings on. John Nettles and Jason Hughes embark on solving a further series of multiple murders in which the unpleasant population of the corner of the Cotswolds is decimated. It is amazing anyone ever buys a house there - most of them must have been the scene of a murder by now!The partnership between Barnaby and Jones is great. Jason Hughes, by far the least boring Barnaby sidekick ever, has the personality to add a wry humour and style to the part. Well, he's a Porthcawl boy and we Welsh specialise in dry humour! And I've been a fan of John Nettles since his Bergerac days, when he proved he could act and was really rather gorgeous into the bargain. Hard to believe he is now past retirement age! He gives Barnaby gravitas and decency and shows a sly sense of humour in the face of the glorious absurdities of the plots.Long may Midsomer continue its murderous ways!

Great storylines and every episode is completely different and original. Our nightly treat during winter lockdown as nothing worth watching on tv. Now have the full collection of series starring John Nettles. Don’t like Neil Dugeon

as with all Mid somer this was a very good series I have enjoyed each and everyone of all episodes and watch them over and over.good detail from amazon.John Nettles deserve his honour. MSM will not be the same without him but thanks to Amazon I can watch them whenever i feel like it.

Have got all the other seasons in my collection this still gets better great show even with the new Barnaby

Building up the complete collection piece by piece with the box sets series 1&2, 3 etc. Be sure if you buy special editions that you are not re-ordering some of the same as they are usually repeated in the special editions. Google to check out the programes - you should recognise them. Other than that, excellent viewing if you're a murder mystery buff.
