History serves well, and is well served...again

Most of my favorite episodes have included visits from historical personae. Among those, the quibbling shrinks in the early days of psychiatry, and the slapstick origins of Chaplin, Keaton, et. Al., linger most fondly in the memory. This one joins their ranks.

Even though the famous figures must inevitably narrow the suspect pool (who could abide icons like a Helen Keller, Mark Twain or Teddy Roosevelt portrayed as cold-blooded killers?), they invariably provide a sparkle, usually setting up dialog with a delightful array of anachronisms. This episode was especially enriched by the comedic use of future words and phrases. And technology. Great writing.

Outstanding!

I've been watching this show since the beginning. I've never missed an episode. (I wish ACORN TV would broadcast the episodes when aired in Canada instead of making us wait months in the USA.). This, without a doubt, was the funniest and I think best of them all. All the motorcycle movie references and the way the lines were delivered kept me laughing throughout. If you're a fan of motorcycles and motorcycle movies do not miss this episode. I think a couple of car movie lines were used too. Even if you've only seen motorcycle movies do not miss this episode. Well done! The series has lost nothing in 16 years.

Thanks for this series

I have to give a special thanks to the entire Murdoch Mysteries staff for producing this series for so many years and these last three episodes have been what I have come to expect from this series as a veteran viewer.

It was beautiful that all the characters of the series were focused on the main case and helped in its process. In all three episodes, in addition to Murdoch's creations, famous people from history such as Rudyard Kipling, the author of Tarzan, Lucy Maud Montgomery, Harley & Davidson were used and greatly contributed to the appeal of the episodes.

I am looking forward to the future episodes of this series and I hope they will be like the last three episodes, The Write Stuff, The Write Stuff, Murdoch Rides Easy.

I also have a suggestion. I wish that like one of the episodes of the famous Dr. Who series, Robin Hood will be included in the story in one episode, I don't know how, but the writers of this series can do this just as they made Sherlock Holmes and... into a real story.

I want to talk specifically about this episode, it had a very brilliant idea and was able to pull the audience with it until the last moment.
