Murdoch Mysteries: The Murdoch Effect

2012 · 1 season

A gentle, playful time-shock caper that trades period charm for modern-day bewilderment, easy to dip into and never too heavy.

Overview: Detective Murdoch wakes up after having had an injury to his head, only to find he is now in the 21st century instead of the 19th century.
How it feels: Whimsical, light, satirical and earnest. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Identity, mystery, memory, technology
Content: Mild violence and language. No gore or sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
