Surprisingly good!
I bought the full 3-box set of Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries after starting a couple discs of the first series from the public library. Phryne is smart, independent, and realistically concerned about the plight of women, minorities, and society's downtrodden in 1920s Melborne, Australia. The series involves itself deeply in a number of social issues and does a good job of painting the class distinctions of the era, largely without prejudice. Independently wealthy, Phryne uses her funds to help others directly and indirectly as a private detective. She develops an uneasy but increasingly workable relationship with a local police inspector. While she is not the "marrying kind" (her words), she has a series of liaisons that usually result in insight to her cases and further character development. While Phryne is the "star" of the series, she has a strong supporting cast that is at least as interesting and they all work well together as an ensemble cast. This is not a traditional "cozy", but a smart detective series with engaging plots that usually involve a series of twists before the final resolution. Weaved among all the mysteries is a larger one: What happened to her sister that disappeared in childhood? I honestly did not expect to like the series so much, but it is proving to be a corker. The episodes build one upon another in a linear story arc that is cohesive and rational and the writers always play fair with the audience. I'm about half way through and am now metering the episodes with viewing once a week because I hate to have the series end. There are rumors of a theatrical movie in the works based on and starring the cast of the series. I can't wait! Highly recommended.

Enjoyable Mystery entertainment
I have really enjoyed the Australian mystery series, set in 1920's Melbourne Australia, with the worldly and adventurious Miss Fisher. A fine set of stories, that touch on subjects of today as well as the past, great settings, locations and decore, the character development is excellent, a great cast. If you like The Murdoch Mysteries, though a bit different, you should enjoy this series too. My only complaint is that the 3rd series (season) has fewer episodes than the first two. Well worth the watching.

Sassy Classy Aussie
I have watched these over and over again. She is so stinking cute, but she carries a gun and climbs ropes and sneaks in to get her man (or woman)! Miss Fisher is an investigator who seems to be wealthy, but I am not sure how she made her money, though she may have inherited some of it. This is set in 1920's Australia and has an interesting back drop of WWI with white Russians and Bolshie's. Her clothes are stunning and I don't know if they fit the period or not, they just look fan-tabulous!!! The novels of Kerry Greenwood come to life as only Essie Davis can deliver! Highly recommend this series!

A feel Happy movie
This is a very entertaining, fun loving film. What I really appreciate is the costumes and especially Miss Fisher's different & lovely wardrobe, I just love the way she dresses. I always feel good after watching one of her films.

A British Mystery outside of the UK, but every bit as good as what you expect from other Acorn Mysteries
LOVE this series. Took a couple of episodes to get 'use' to Phryne Fisher, but engaging series with characters that grow on you really fast. Period details are EXCELLENT...so if you love great architecture and clothing, there is that, too.

1920s Woman Private Investigator "Interferes" in Police Criminal Matters
This is the 3rd and final season of the Miss Fisher murder mystery series from Australia, shown on PBS. Adapted from Kerry Greenwood's Phryne Fisher books, this series continues to be suspenseful, sexy, well-acted, and beautifully staged. Wealthy Miss Fisher (Essie Davis) is a woman ahead of her time, an adventuresome private investigator, and whip smart. Personally, I would clamor for more seasons. Instead, watch the series on these DVDs and enjoy the shows again. Fully recommended.

Sassy and delightful to watch
First saw this on Netflix and was enchanted from the first episode. If you love a good detective show, great characters, and period era humor, then this is the show for you. I've recommended it to many of my friends looking for "something" to watch and they get hooked. Watch it and see for yourself.

There Could Never Be Enough
Yep, Season 3 is just as terrific as Seasons 1 and 2. And the Interwebs are full of the plaintive cries of those who have seen it - "Where's season 4? Will there be a season 4? Who do we have to murder to get a season 4? Just name them! -- and so on. The Miss Fisher stories are an absolute delight, and Essie Davis and a wonderful cast bring the stories to life in a way that has even the most dedicated fan purists clamoring for more. Set in Australia in the 1920s, it follows the adventures of the rich, beautiful, independent and endlessly curious "Lady Detective" Miss Phryne Fisher (whose drunken, rich, ne'er-do-well father meant to name her Phoebe, but got confused on the way to the registry and, to Miss Fisher's unending pride, instead named her Phryne after an ancient Greek prostitute so successful that she offered to rebuild the walls of Athens after one of their wars).

Mysteries in Melbourne
This wonderful series, set in 1920's Australia, stars Essie Davis as Miss Fisher - a woman who is wealthy, intelligent, and resourceful. She is not only a "modern" woman with a zest for life (and quite an interesting life at that!) but a private detective as well. She aides Chief Inspector Jack Robinson in the most baffling murder cases, and the attraction between them grows with each episode. Colorful, beautifully produced, and totally engrossing, this series is a pure delight!

Austraiian lady detective
Miss Fisher is a glamorous lady private detective in 1920's Melbourne. Actress Essie Davis does a phenomenal job as Miss Fisher. I watched all three seasons and decided I must have my own copy to watch over and over again. Very enjoyable series. Maybe someday they will make a forth season or a movie. I highly recommend!
