E-Investigator's Best Crime TV Series and Detective Shows

"This is a list of the best crime TV series and detective shows. It is likely that many people get their original inspiration to become a private investigator, detective, police officer or forensic specialist from watching their favorite crime series and detective shows on TV. Although Hollywood's depiction of the investigation and crime scene work performed by police officers and private investigators often over-glamorizes the professions, the wide variety of high-quality series helps position it as an exciting and interesting career. TV crime shows are usually built around fictional characters, but many of the plot lines come straight from newspaper headlines of the times. Following is an ever-evolving list of the best crime TV series." - .einvestigator.com
