Midsomer Murders is not afraid to reuse episode tropes in slightly different ways, and honestly? I kinda respect it! like - yeah, you’re on season eighteen! go ahead and do another UFOs and aliens episode! you’ve earned it!

#Midsomer Murders #I’ve watched a LOT of crime procedurals in my life #and I have an extensive personal list of Episode Tropes And Themes that show up in them #and a lot of shows - even very long-running ones - are afraid to reuse the really standout/gimmicky ones #but not Midsomer!#multiple episodes with fishy psychics? sure! (and never the same psychic twice!)#multiple episodes about pagan cults and practices? absolutely!#multiple episodes in which a magic trick goes fatally wrong? let’s do it!#CSI lasted 336 episodes and took place in VEGAS and they were afraid to reuse the silly tropes this often!#the Midsomer writers are FEARLESS.
