Police procedural crime show on Acorn TV, The Brokenwood Mysteries continues week after week to bring to the small screen how a group of local detectives with a unique story arc in their character development solves many crimes and murders. With its hour-and-half format of storytelling, this Australian show manages to bring a different look at detective shows, each episode is different from the other concerning the crime, but we see how the characters of the police team, headed by odd-ball Mike Shepherd, the cynical Detective Simms and the calm and stubborn Chalmers approach to crime scenes while also navigating the ups and downs of their personal lives in aspects like co-worker relationships and their love lives.
In its ninth season, the Police team of Brokenwood has solved all sorts of crimes, from nuns found dead with a rope around their necks, a musical theatric performance that ended up in a horrid death, to the classic “whodunnit” at a manor following a death and inheritance dispute. But there’s nothing that can stand in the way of our crime investigation team and getting to the truth with each episode. The last episode was a bit of a “whodunnit” in a motel, where the guests had conflicting stories and alibis concerning a dead man.
