Murder Investigation Team

This edgy crime series should come with a seat belt. From the stylish opening to the final solution of each case, each episode grips you by the throat and doesn’t let go until the credits roll. And it does it with surprisingly little actual action, at least in terms of car chases and shootouts. The action here comes from the stellar cast doing the investigation, each of whom has his or her part in solving the crime (and making the solution so riveting). The excellent Samantha Spiro and Lindsey Coulson prove that women can be as tough as any CSI investigator, and they do it with more style.
