Friday Favorites - Foyle's War


Foyle's War is a favorite television series of mine. There are not many things on television worth watching, but Foyle's War is among those precious few. It's a British detective drama featuring actor Michael Kitchen as the unflappable and vigilant Detective Chief Superintendent Christopher Foyle. The drama is set in World War II Sussex, England in the city of Hastings. While so many other people are off and away fighting the war, Foyle fights crime on the home front.

There are currently seven seasons available for viewing, and another season in the works (scheduled for release in 2015). Each season has three or four episodes, and each episode is about 90 minutes long. In just the last six months, Cheri and I devoured and thoroughly enjoyed the entire series.  Thank you, Netflix and PBS!

If you haven't yet discovered Foyle, it's jolly good timing for you. What could be better for the approaching winter months than a nice long series of who-done-its? Check it out and be sure to let me know if it becomes one of your favorites too.
