"Miss Scarlet and the Duke" | Series Premieres Sunday, Jan. 12 on PBS
Plot: When her father dies, Eliza Scarlet takes on the challenge of running her late father's detective agency with her childhood friend the unconventional Detective Inspector William Wellington of Scotland Yard, known as "The Duke."
Our Take: As a fan of Victorian-era forensic crime dramas, headstrong women detectives, and "will-they-won’t-they" romances, this six-part mystery series was seemingly made for me. If "Miss Scarlet and the Duke" throws in a few sword fights, carriage chases, and fisticuffs, it will be everything that I wanted and more. — Vanessa
