Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.

I'd like to see the drama series where someone comes in and says "this village of 600 people has had 31 murders in the last five years. All of which were solved by old grannies, visiting chefs, and cats walking on typewriters. It's obvious that law enforcement is dropping the ball big time." 24 episodes doing a complete teardown of the local police.

I won't spoil it by naming it, but I really enjoyed a recent mystery where the amateur detective nearly dies at the hands of someone he didn't suspect at all, and gets saved because the old, fat local cop was miles ahead of him the whole time.

I wonder what's the ratio between the number of murders in Norway and number of muders in Jo Nesbø's novels.

I mean, that's pretty close to Murder, She Wrote.

law enforcement? Their job is to enforce the "law", not to solve problems.
And the "law" says - bribe them or go to jail.
