Season 18x11, "Bombshells" Same as you, Trey, I liked this episode, but last week's had me on the edge of my seat. I've really loved having Julia Ogden back on my screen. Hadn't realized how much I've been missing her presence. Hoping we at least see her once again this season. Felt so bad for Violet. I hope that is the last we see of her (now ex) husband. He was awful. Glad Isaiah came back to her and helped run her husband out of town. I loved the two episodes where they teamed up to solve a mystery, so I'd love to see more of that. Cool to see Zoie Palmer (from my beloved Dark Matter) as Lucy, the head of the suffragettes. I had a feeling the older lady (Christabel) was involved in the victim's death, but I what I didn't see coming was Lord Whatshisname orchestrating the murder. Should've known he wasn't interested in helping the suffragettes.

I miss this show, too, but I'm not sure it's coming back since Ashley Jensen is now on Shetland.

Enjoying season 2 of Darby and Joan, though

I wonder if this is how the writers will get Bobby out of prison.

This is the same couple that interrupted their own wedding to solve a murder, so murder solving on their anniversary is very on brand 😄 This also reminded me of one of my favorite episodes, "Honeymoon in Hampshire," where Georgie and Effie solve a murder while honeymooning in the English countryside. I loved this episode so much. I found Julia's eye-rolling at William's fanboying over meeting the great detective Ronald Perle delightful. Donal Logue has become one of those actors that I'm always delighted to see when he pops up. I also enjoyed the B story about Margaret's surprise party. Watts' tussling with the decorations was funny, but I found it weird that he - and Higgins - didn't have any lines. Nefarious businessmen running a shadow government? Murdoch Mysteries is suddenly hitting very close to home!

Not specifically a season 9 comment, but I was delighted to see Melissa Johns (Miss Scott) pop up on the series 12 premiere of Father Brown!

Not me feeling bad for Detective Phelps! I loved how kind and compassionate Eliza was to him. And they teamed up well. I can definitely see Eliza becoming a mentor to Blake's daughter.

Just watched the trailer. Looks like a cute show. Hope it comes to a US streaming service or Ovation.

I sure hope that's not the last we see of Nash. He and Eliza make a great team. I did find it hilarious that he'd tied up Bertie Campbell and pinned the "Eliza" note to him. Felt bad for Mrs. Parker. She didn't deserve to be scammed by that jerk. I continue to adore Clarence!

Cool to see that Ivy will be working at Scotland Yard. I'm glad for her to find something to do beyond keep house for Eliza.

I liked it! The new inspector is sharp and far less indulgent of Eliza. I appreciate the slightly different dynamic from the one she had with the Duke. Loved Nash and Eliza together. Their friendship is sweet, and I think it's good for both of them. Not at all surprised that Nash has special privileges in prison-LOL. Hopefully, he and Eliza can work together again once he's out.

Me too! LOVED this episode. Choi going undercover was SO good! Kudos to him for stalling for more time and getting the drop on that crook. The Choi/Murdoch partnership is really hitting for me. Also loved the introduction of the new constable, Roberts. I want him to stay and not be killed off suddenly. I'd love to see Violet take him under her wing. I also love that Watts invited Roberts to the Starbright.

Just watched the Christmas special, and I liked it. I particularly enjoyed the Commissioner in this one. He held things together and was very sensitive to Mervin's search for his mother. In his attitude toward the island, Mervin reminds me of Richard Poole, with the obvious difference being Mervin's connection to the island through his mother. I'm intrigued by the connection and curious to see how that part of his story unfolds. That said, I am hoping someone gathers him for his rudeness soon.

Disappointing. I'll miss this show. The dynamic between the 4 actresses was second to none. The theme song and "Momentum" still make me get up and dance.

Reminds me of Hermione's bottomless purse in the Harry Potter movies.
