    Default Shows similar to Broadchurch?

    I just watched all three seasons of Broadchurch and really enjoyed it. What other shows are similar - mystery with little to no violence?

    Hinterland? I think? Can’t remember much violence. I’m not sure if it’s on Netflix now. Definitely not Luther, although I love it.

    Midsomer Murders might be a good choice. Despite the name it's pretty tame. If Kingdom is still on Netflix, give it a try. Maybe Wallander? I don't recall if it's violent.

    Father brown is pretty tame but we found it a bit dull after a few episodes.

    Midsomer murders is gruesome, at least the first episode we saw, but maybe not for murder mystery standards.

    Question - I watched and loved the first season of Broadchurch, but somehow didn't feel a need to watch the other seasons. I just felt done! But your message has me rethinking that. Should I watch them?

    And I just started Bodyguard which is a British drama and seems great.

    "The Killing". It has some violence, most described violence. It wasn't too violent for me, and I'm a wimp. The US version is set in Seattle, but I think the original show was Swedish.

    Midsommer Murders and Lewis are both great. I hate violence and neither of them are very violent.

    I know what you mean, I felt the same after season 1. In my opinion, it was the best of the 3. That being said, I really loved David Tennant in this show so he (and the actress who played Miller) made it worth watching the other 2 seasons.
