O Mistério do Juiz Di

If you enjoy Sherlock Holmes and Agatha Christie mysteries, then you will enjoy this historical-fiction series Judge Dee's Mystery. Watching the series is like reading an anthology with a new story every few episodes. It is interesting how the main character, Judge Dee, tries to surmise how the crime is committed, but with so many plot twists it never ends the way he initially thought.

You quickly get attached to the main characters and hope that they survive their various plights. The series really makes you think about how difficult it was to survive during this period in China.

Love the choreographed-fight scenes and the historical costume designs.
