Murdoch mysteries is one of the few shows I believe can pull of a musical episode becuase the nature of the show to begin with. This show has not taken itself seriously since day one and its glorious. The main character has invented the roomba, the microwave and reinvented the sport of curling. George crabtree was the inspiration for anne of green gables. Their (arguably) best episode is a parody of weekend at bernies. Aliens are real. Shows like greys anatomy think they can do a musical episode but they haven't built up the lore. I've come to expect absolute nonsense mixed up with some charming message about justice from mm. This is what nikola tesla intended when he invented television.

What we know about the musical episode so far

It airs on March 25

Murdoch hallucinates the whole thing while comatose from a gunshot (apparently to the head?)

It's been floating around at Shaftesbury for nearly a decade

Brackenreid sings a song called "Bloody Hell," written by Paul Aitken and recorded at least eight years ago (I'm guessing this means all the other songs are original as well)

Thomas Craig can SING

Everybody sings! Including Higgins!

Gay! Dancing! Constables!

Have I missed anything?

Do you have any tattoos? ⚓️ I have a bunch, so I was very excited to come across these 19th century tattoo flash books in the Winterthur Library – and they’re digitized! You can see them here 📚
