Capitain Marleau (2014– )
10/10
Yes!

This is a wonderfully hilarious, fast paced and fun mystery series. Captain Marleau will make you laugh out loud whilst she is tirelessly solving murder mysteries. Her confidence in her crime solving skills, social prowess, and highly charged bursts of femininity will keep you engaged and rooting for her to win the day, and she always does. It is a great way to spend an hour unravelling clues and enjoying regular plot twists alongside the amazing Captain Marleau!

Well worth the watch

Thrilling mystery that goes back and forth between the tensions evolving on a sailboat to a mystery from over a hundred years past. Jean Janes is most certainly caught between the devil and the deep blue sea. If you like sailboats, the sea, and watching a movie that keeps you on your toes, this is the one to watch.

Magellan (2009– )

I found this gem on MHZ. If you like Poirot or Agatha Christie you will appreciate the pacing and consistency in this series as it is very similar. It is interesting enough to binge watch one after the other and each episode has some inconspicuous humor and amusing anecdotal moments. It's a shame the supporting role of lieutenant changed actors three times. At the same time though, it could be deemed as believable had it been explained to the viewer or if there was some transition between the three. The actors who played the roles of the daughters for some reason had to be changed. I don't know why. It wasn't a problem viewing the younger sister's noticeable growth spurts. That made the show believable. The second set of daughters worked out well and really it doesn't matter that they look nothing like the first set. Perhaps the writers wanted to suspend Magellan's age, make him timeless by surrounding him with a cast that seemingly doesn't age. Whatever the reason, it didn't seem necessary. Either way, new characters, past characters, both casts have succeeded in making this show a ten.
