Masterpiece Mystery
When it comes to television, the best of it seems to come from the BBC, especially under the banner of "Masterpiece." Here is yet another wonderful, but, alas, too short, series based on the stories of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and updated to present day London. With clever, witty dialogue and stories that keep you riveted, each episode will leave you anxious to watch the next. Unfortunately, there are only 3 episodes (though each is about 90 minutes), and the last leaves you utterly surprised, and desperate for more. Fortunately, three more episodes will air this fall.
It's going to be a long wait.
Since murder is involved, naturally each episode contains some violence, though it's not graphic. However, overall the subject matter is too mature for children and younger teens. There is occasional mild language.
