I am quite enjoying the Australian TV series Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries, based on the books by Kerry Greenwood. It takes place in Melbourne, Australia in the late 20s, with wealthy flapper & amateur sleuth Phryne Fisher (Essie Davis) getting herself involved in various murder mysteries (duh)... It looks gorgeous, it's entertaining and fun, and even tho it's fairly lighthearted it still manages to touch upon subjects like drug abuse, racism and religious issues (never in a very grave/in-your-face manner tho). I can recommend it It's on Netflix here, but there are also DVD's etc...
