Do You Know Inspector Morse ?

If you are looking for a TV series that will hook you in, I highly recommend watching "Endeavour."  

Originally on PBS, it is now available for free on Prime and is truly a quality British detective series.

Shaun Evans plays young Inspector Morse in my 6 seasons of watching on Prime. He is a brilliant, yet humble, solver of many murder mysteries and very ethical and straightforward fellow who is somewhat on the serious side and a little bit of a social loner.

The other well developed characters in the show are interesting, the episodes are intriguing,  and the acting is excellent. 
It's originally part of PBS  Masterpiece Theater. 

I love the opera music in each episode, the historical references, and the plain brilliance of the way each episode unfolds. It takes place in the 1960's in Oxford, England. (I watch we subtitles since the British accents are quite strong).

Endeavour (Music From the TV Series) by Various Artists on Apple Music

It's not a new show, but it's new for me. 
I've been binge watching the old episodes, and I am now in season 4. I highly recommend it - I don't think you will be disappointed.  

For those who have already watched it, the new Season 8 is now starting on PBS. 

I also understand that there is another series on Prime called Inspector Morse which is a British detective series that preceded Endeavour and is about the older Inspector Morse- lover of the finer things in life and solver of many murder mysteries. 


What are you watching? Have you watched Endeavour?

  4. Judee, I was commenting and it just disappeared! I was writing to let you know that I appreciate British productions as well, especially their mysteries and the shows about history. I like Agatha Christie's series with the old French detective (can't spell his name), I enjoyed watching Mary Berry's shows, and now I'm watching "Becoming Elizabeth". I'll check out this series that you recommended. Happy summer reading!

  5. I fell in love with Morse when the series first aired in the late '80s. I dearly love John Thaw, and was absolutely crushed when he passed away. It did my heart good to see his daughter appear in the new version. When we were living in Oxford, it was great fun to visit all of the sites that appeared in the show. I also enjoy Endeavour, and think the casting is truly inspired, particularly where the ME is concerned.
