Midsomer Murders: Sins of Commission (2004)
Possibly the worst thing that has ever happened to TV
I am not going to bother summarising this episode. To be honest, I am halfway through watching it and I just don't care who did it or why. This is mostly because it has very obviously been written by someone who has been granted access to a pile of James Patterson books, a couple of substandard bottles of rubbing alcohol and a computer with no 'appalling writing' check on it. I don't even know where to begin explaining how unbelievably wide of the mark the previous reviewers were. I have literally never, in my entire life, watched a programme in which the scriptwriter had so evidently decided at the outset to write an insubstantial plot involving two dimensional... Do you know what, it actually just got worse in front of my eyes. Seriously, I wrote better murder mysteries in crayon when I was at nursery. It's JUST AWFUL. Please watch it and tell me you disagree. Joyce Barnaby just uttered the words 'this really is the most awful tripe' and the worst thing is that I suspect the writer lacks the self awareness to realise how terribly accurately that describes this utter, utter rubbish.
