Disc 1

Episode 1: Murdoch of the Klondike

Murdoch has become a gold prospector in the Klondike. When a woman arrested for murder asks him to help prove her innocence, Murdoch is reluctant to return to his former line of work. Meanwhile, Crabtree struggles to lead his first investigation on his own, and Dr. Ogden begins training a new coroner.

 

Episode 2: Back and to the Left

With tensions simmering between Protestants and Catholics, the police department is on high alert during an Orange Day parade. When a town alderman is shot by a sniper in the midst of the festivities, Toronto’s Irish Catholic residents fall under suspicion.

 

Episode 3: Evil Eye of Egypt

When an Egyptian sarcophagus is opened at a museum exhibit, a hidden cobra delivers a fatal bite to one of the expedition’s archaeologists. Further strange incidents incite rumors of a mummy’s curse—and bolster sales of Crabtree’s Egyptian-themed adventure novel.

 

Episode 4: War on Terror

A bomb explodes a storefront, injuring Crabtree and Higgins. Although the shop’s proprietor has many enemies, government agent Terrence Meyers believes the bombing was an anarchists’ attack. Murdoch and Meyers go undercover to infiltrate the group.

When an inventor dies under mysterious circumstances, Murdoch comes across an old acquaintance, a battery-operated vehicle, and Henry Ford in the course of his investigation.

 

Episode 7: Stroll on the Wild Side, Part 1

The abduction of a librarian reveals that the seemingly shy young woman harbored a secret life and reunites Murdoch with a former flame. Dr. Ogden ends up on the wrong side of the law when she agitates for women’s rights.

 

Disc 3

Episode 8: Stroll on the Wild Side, Part 2

The Black Hand reenters Anna’s life, and the investigation into the librarian’s death heats up when another young woman becomes a victim. Crabtree discovers clues in some steamy stories, and Dr. Ogden’s political views cause tensions with her husband.

 

Episode 9: Invention Convention

A shot fells a deeply disliked inventor after he wins the top prize at an invention convention. His fellow exhibitors, including Alexander Graham Bell, become suspects, particularly when Murdoch uncovers the ingenious method used for the murder.

 

Episode 10: Staircase to Heaven

On a stormy night, a game of cards among Dr. Grace’s friends ends with a man’s death. Murdoch goes to investigate and discovers the group was involved in otherworldly experiments. Meanwhile, Brackenreid and Crabtree guard a witness from a master criminal.

 

Disc 4

Episode 11: Murdoch in Toyland

A girl is abducted from her home, and a talking doll left at the scene mentions Murdoch by name. As the detective chases down the culprit, he’s met at each stage by more dolls taunting him with clues and ultimately threatening what Murdoch holds most dear.

 

Episode 12: Murdoch Night in Canada

When a hockey player dies after a fistfight with a teammate, it appears to be a tragic accident. As Murdoch digs deeper, he reveals simmering tensions among the players and team owners that could alter forever the future of the sport.

I am a Canadian Murdoch fan(atic) - and also a Sherlockian (Wisteria Lodgers), and a BBC'er. Therefore you must take me as biased! Great series - well (sub)plotted, scripted, presented (characters, locations, timing)! The 780 Acorn DVD videos are high quality. Blu-ray (1080) versions must be a treat to see and hear. I am definitely looking into ACORN Online! Do not be turned away by my "bias" - you will certainly be missing high quality shows!

Labeled "Victorian CSI", this series also includes forensics, the beginnings of psychological profiling and the year 1899's current events, which look a lot like 2012 current events. Historical figures are woven into the stories - Jack London, Emma Goldman and Henry Ford during this season - and the series characters experience near-death, time travel, and the usual mix of drama, comedy and romance. This season was greatly anticipated and didn't disappoint this dedicated fan of the show. My only question for Acorn: can you stream Season 6 so U.S. viewers don't have to wait so long to catch up with this wonderful series?

I enjoy how significant occurences in history are incorporated into the plots. I'm glad that the series will continue beyond the original 5 years.

The Murdoch Mysteries series is outstanding from every viewpoint: Stories, characters, plots, acting, period costumes, cinematography. The combination of detection with humor and romance, plus a fascinating glimpse of late 19th/early 20th century Canadian history especially technology/science makes this one of the rare adult detective series. Wish it had been widely available on American television channels.

Disc 1

Episode 1:  All Tattered and Torn

The discovery of dismembered body parts encased in a concrete block poses a seemingly impenetrable mystery, but Murdoch chips away at the case, despite the resistance of prickly pathologist Dr. Llewellyn Francis. The detective soon unearths clues to a decades-old crime with unlikely accomplices.

 

Episode 2:  Kommando

A dead soldier found hanging from a tree with his head twisted 180 degrees points Murdoch to a secret plot in the Canadian military. The investigation puts the constabulary at odds with both the British and Canadian armed forces and prompts an unlikely alliance between Murdoch and Dr. Francis.

 

Episode 3:  Buffalo Shuffle

Murdoch reunites with his old flame, Dr. Julia Ogden, in Buffalo, New York, to investigate the death of a young patient. In short order, Murdoch’s feelings for Julia heat up, as do suspicions surrounding one of Ogden’s colleagues. In Toronto, a constabulary break-in raises troubling questions.

 

Episode 4:  Downstairs, Upstairs

Wealthy patriarch Percival Jenkins is found facedown in a bowl of porridge, pulling Murdoch into a world of privilege and resentment. Murdoch untangles the twisted web connecting the servants and family members and finds that each has a motive to kill the master of the manor.

 

Disc 2

Episode 5:  Monsieur Murdoch

The disappearance of a visiting Parisian girl thrusts Murdoch into an odd partnership with French Detective Marcel Guillaume, a real-life inspiration for the fictional Inspector Maigret. Brackenreid, meanwhile, ponders a political career.

 

Episode 6:  Dead End Street

Murdoch suspects that a detailed miniature streetscape of a Toronto neighborhood contains clues to a homicide. But the artist is an “idiot savant,” unable to finger the killer. It’s up to Murdoch to get a clear picture of a street roiling with conflict, deceit, and murder.

 

Episode 7:  Confederate Treasure

Murdoch’s investigation into the murder of a defense minister raises the hackles of the detective’s rival, spy Terrence Meyers. Could the inquiry ignite war with the United States? The explosive revelations put Murdoch’s technical wizardry to the test in a race for Civil War booty.

The Murdoch series is very well done. enjoyable, entertaining, with a little history and education thrown in. When new seasons didn't show up on Netflix and Amazon I was sad and thought that Murdoch had went into history. But finally with another google search newer seasons were found on Acorn I purchased them immediately.

This is a great series implying the start using "CSI" techniques to solve crime. I also like the character Brackenreid, the Inspector who is a honest cop, but with a tendency to "force" answers to get results. And Murdoch, eagerly applying science for verification and providing clues.

I loved the first season so much, I bought the next two seasons. I like the fact that Murdoch uses his reasoning abilities for his work, but forgets them when it comes to women. Even though the time period is rather Victorian, the characters polite, the solving of the murders is almost modern. An added treat is the humor shown now and then in unexpected ways.

Disc 1
Episode 1:Mild, Mild West
When a stunt goes wrong at Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Extravaganza, it’s up to Murdoch to decide whether it was murder or a tragic accident. In a camp full of sharpshooters, everyone is a suspect—even the famous Annie Oakley.

Episode 2:Snakes and Ladders
A brusque Scotland Yard detective arrives in Toronto convinced that Jack the Ripper is within his grasp. Murdoch must race against time to catch the killer—and brush up on his foxtrot—after he invites Dr. Ogden to an exclusive gala.

Episode 3:Dinosaur Fever
Famed paleontologist Barkeley Blake is in town to premiere his latest discovery, but Murdoch’s evening with Dr. Ogden is ruined when the event becomes a crime scene. While tracking the killer, the team discovers that the bone hunters are involved in blackmail, sabotage, and secret romances.

Episode 4:Houdini Whodunit
A bank robbery and two murders seem to implicate the brash young Harry Houdini. His flirtatious assistant—who happens to be Dr. Ogden’s sister—is convinced the illusionist is innocent. While the women vie for Murdoch’s attention, Inspector Brackenreid is determined to keep Houdini in chains.

Disc 2
Episode 5:The Green Muse
An "experiment" with absinthe following the murder of an escort finally brings Dr. Ogden and Murdoch together. Meanwhile, the Temperance League increases its pressure on the force to rid the city of vice—including the Music Room, a brothel frequented by Toronto’s elite. Episode 6:Shades of Grey
When a young woman is found dead in a creek, Murdoch must investigate a man from Dr. Ogden’s past. Their fledgling relationship is threatened by differences of opinion regarding abortion, and Murdoch nearly loses his objectivity while tracking those responsible for the victim’s death.

Episode 7:Big Murderer on Campus
At first glance, the murder of a physics professor seems to be the perfect crime. Murdoch tries to call on Dr. Ogden for help, but their relationship remains strained. In the meantime, Constable Crabtree has his own mystery to solve: discovering the true identity of his mother.

Disc 3
Episode 8:I, Murdoch
A young boy comes to the station with a strange report about a giant knight, but Murdoch brushes it off as a tall tale. When the boy goes missing after two bizarre murders and the appearance of a Prussian assassin, Murdoch begins to suspect something more sinister.

Episode 9:Convalescence
Murdoch, severely injured while pursuing a suspect, finds himself bedridden with two women competing for his affections: Dr. Ogden and Enid, a beautiful young widow. Constable Crabtree takes the lead on Murdoch’s case, but he can’t seem to impress Inspector Brackenreid with his detective skills.

Episode 10:Murdoch.com
Murdoch’s relationship with Enid continues to grow; when a mysterious killer begins stalking telegraph operators in Toronto, he calls on her for help. Meanwhile, Inspector Brackenreid’s quest to stop drinking has made him increasingly erratic, and Dr. Ogden begins to worry about his health.

Disc 4
Episode 11:Let Us Ask the Maiden
The death of a factory worker in Toronto’s insular Jewish ward reveals his star-crossed romance with the wealthy factory owner’s daughter. As the investigation proceeds, Murdoch learns that several of the ward’s inhabitants—rich and poor— have motives to kill.

Episode 12:Werewolves
A savage killing—seemingly committed by an animal—has some people convinced that a werewolf is on the prowl. As Murdoch searches for a logical explanation, he finds himself again torn between his feelings for Enid and his lingering affection for Dr. Ogden.

Episode 13:Anything You Can Do…
A murder investigation is alternately thwarted and aided by a mounted policeman who otherwise seems both competent and meticulous, much to Murdoch’s irritation. His annoyance increases when it seems that the interloper has impressed Dr. Ogden with more than his crime-solving skills.

To this Californian, who knows zip about Canadian television,this series is entertaining, interesting with invention history, a visual treat period piece.

If you like hard boiled with a tough talking invincible hero, this isn't for you. Detective Murdoch is a shy policeman with a gentle manner, who gets around on a bicycle. His passion for trying out new scientific discoveries to solve crimes keeps the stories moving. Our only complaint is that there isn't a third season available!

Fascinating Series

An original mystery series. With the Victorian setting, it makes a pleasant change from all the modern police and lawyer shows on TV. It is interesting to compare the forensics to those of the present time.

Disc 1
Episode 1:Power
Commentary by Yannick Bisson, Jonny Harris, Sandra Kybartas, and Cal Coons While demonstrating the dangers of newfangled alternating current to the public, Miss Toronto Electric & Light dies spectacularly onstage. A tragic accident or murder? Detective William Murdoch enlists the help of the eccentric scientist Nikola Tesla to find out.

Episode 2:The Glass Ceiling
A trunk delivered to Inspector Brackenreid contains a lawyer’s naked corpse and a taunting note. When a second trunk turns up—complete with another body and note—Murdoch races to find the killer before his boss becomes the next victim.

Episode 3:The Knockdown
After celebrating a big win, boxer Amos Robinson goes down for the count, courtesy of a gunshot to the chest. A witness finds Robinson’s wife, Fannie, standing over the body and holding a pistol, but Murdoch aims to prove her innocence.

Episode 4:Elementary, My Dear Murdoch
Murdoch accompanies his hero—the famed writer Arthur Conan Doyle—to a séance, where the medium guides him to the body of a skeptical psychic investigator. Did the clues indeed come from the spirit world? Or did the medium have a motive for murder?

Episode 5:Till Death Do Us Part
When Wendell Merrick dies from a blow to the head immediately before his wedding, the case looks like a simple robbery gone wrong. But questions about the groom’s gallivanting ways lead Murdoch into Toronto’s homosexual subculture.


Disc 2
Episode 6:Let Loose the Dogs
A murder brings Murdoch face to face with his troubled past, as the detective’s estranged father turns up drunk near the crime scene. Losing his usual objectivity, Murdoch seems dead set on proving his father’s guilt.

Episode 7:Body Double
When a corpse crashes through a theatre’s ceiling and lands onstage in the midst of Macbeth, Murdoch and Brackenreid delve into the backstage intrigues of the city’s leading Shakespearean acting troupe.

Episode 8:Still Waters
Boys playing on the lakeshore discover the bruised, beaten body of Richard Hartley—scion of a wealthy family and the newest addition to the exclusive King’s Club rowing team. Investigating the case, Murdoch finds dark secrets beneath a gleaming world of privilege.

Episode 9:Belly Speaker
Ostensibly researching a new detective novel, Arthur Conan Doyle returns to Toronto and meddles in a case involving a mad ventriloquist who seems to have murdered his father. Murdoch begins to suspect that the author has a hidden agenda.


Disc 3
Episode 10:Child’s Play
Who could have murdered Howard Rookwood? Everyone admired the well-known philanthropist, killed in the horse paddock of his glue factory. When suspicions fall on boys employed at the factory, Murdoch uncovers another side to the victim’s character.

Episode 11:Bad Medicine
After a mysterious hooded figure kills a prominent psychiatric researcher, Murdoch investigates the doctor’s former patients. The case grows more complex when a psychic warns Murdoch that the grim reaper will claim more victims—including the detective himself.

Episode 12:The Rebel and the Prince
The murder of a girl connected to the Irish Brotherhood leads police to suspect a plot against visiting Prince Alfred. Constable Crabtree joins the prince’s retinue and finds His Highness more than a handful to guard.

Episode 13:The Annoying Red Planet
When a reclusive woodworker and amateur astronomer is found hanging high in a tree, mounting evidence points to one conclusion: he was murdered by Martians. Constable Crabtree becomes convinced of an imminent alien invasion, but Murdoch searches for more earthly answers.

Had seen Murdoch on PBS Masterpiece & enjoyed it. Murdoch believes in using science & scientific procedures such as taking finger 'marks' as clues. Its a mix of murder mystery and historical fact & fantasy. For ex. when characters like Nikoli Tesla and Arthur Conan Doyle appear in the show. It is historically true that both men did spend time in Toronto(where Murdoch is based) but of course no evidence of working a detective named Murdoch. Entertaining without weighing the viewer down.
