Audience

Inspector Morse is a British detective drama drawn from Colin Dexter’s novels. Chief Inspector Morse and a supporting sergeant investigate cases in Oxford, where clues are uncovered through interviews and investigation as the stories unfold in a distinctly cerebral, character-driven style.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy Inspector Morse for its classy Oxford setting and thoughtful detective storytelling, especially if you like Prime Suspect or Silent Witness; Not for you if you want fast action, straightforward mysteries, or easily followed episodes.
