National Mystery Series Week.
Mysteries series in books started mainly in the 1800s and continue to this day. Where was I when the first week in October was dedicated as National Mystery Series Week? Well this year I was celebrating and I didn't even realize it. I've been sick laid up with a head cold and though I was not curled up with a good mystery book, I was curled up under my favorite blanket watching murder mysteries from the BBC on my instant netflicks account.
This was started 1998 and this is the 17 yrear that is has been a National Holiday celebrated by bookworms and movie buffs alike. To celebrate you can have a murder mystery night with friends, curl up with a good book or grab your favorite blanket and watch a TV series or mystery movie, which is what I did.
This drawing of mine is titled The Jane Austen Creey Rice drawing. This is based on the Jane Austen Rice painting, which was owned by the Rice family, which is how it got its name. Painted by a Russian artist in the late 18th century when Jane Austen was just a girl in her mid teens, the painting is still highly disputed today. Some saying the subject of the painting was far too pretty to the writer of Pride and Prejudice.
Murder Mystery Night
Sherlock
This updated Sherlock which is a Masterpiece Mystery series is set in modern day London and stars one of my favorite British actors, Martin Freeman shines as Doctor Watson and if you have netflix like I do, they have just uploaded season two for your watch pleasure, they game is afoot.
Midsomer Murders
Midsomer Murders is a series set in the fictional town of midsomer and you can guess the rest, yes there are murders. Detective Chief Inspector Tom Barnaby is somewhat of a regular bloke and a very good copper, him and his partner get wrapped in the craziest, insane, wild cases. He is married and has an actress daughter. I am just entering series 4 and I watched two just this week.
Inspector Lewis
Inspector Lewis regions the force after a three year break, after the sudden death of his wife. He is a average guy, he has a nose for crime and a good sense of right and wrong, but he is surrounded by pompous intellectuals in this university town, he has a a partner who himself was well educated and could of done anything he wanted, but he wanted to be a police officer.
I've watched a good few of these as well this week and can't wait until more of this Masterpiece Mystery series come out on netflix, really I might not be able to wait, when I get through to season 5.
Murder She Wrote
Murder She Wrote, well I wanted to add an American show, of course this actress is originally British. It was great in the beginning, but by the end the plots were a bit thin. It did last a good 12 years. I watched this for years as a child and loved the one episode that was supposed to be based on one of her books.
