Such a joy - it's what I love about Murdoch, and this from the start, always daring to expand the narrow confines of storytelling to include horror, music, sci-fi, noir, and all manner of genres.
I feel bad for those who cannot expand their minds and tastes to dare to try something different. "Normal" Murdoch is not a thing and I for one am so grateful the team isn't limited in their thinking, or in the cast's abilities.
The interweaving of what is happening inside Murdoch's mind and the investigation is such a clever way to tell the story. The musical numbers are amusing, touching and well produced.
This episode is the kind of thing that keeps the series fresh and engaging. Pity the person who cannot enjoy such creativity.
