Besides the excellent main characters, the series brilliantly casts the supporting cast. Interesting peek into crooked spiritualists, and their pitiful followers. Barnaby and Joyce are getting older but still fit into their roles perfectly. MM has wild endings. But, that's what makes it fun. The good episodes are appealing because of their total unpredictability. I'll probably stop watching when John Nettles leaves. But, I'm mostly loving the series so far. Ever notice Barnaby never reports to a supervisor? Vito S 10-23-19
