@number one queen, I have it, I've had it for a while, I really like it. The shows that I like to watch on it have ended their seasons, but I always find something new that I haven't seen yet. I pay $4.99 per month. I'm not sure if it's still being offered, I tried it using a one week free trial that was offered on Amazon Prime.

@number one queen I had it for the winter season and really enjoyed it. You can't go wrong for the price.

Mother- in- law has it, and loves it. Father-in-law gives her a year at a time at Christmas time.

I had it, but now subscribe to BritBox through Prime/$6.99

Love their "soaps" and detective type shows!

I watch a lot of the detectives shows, such as Midsomer Murders, Brokenwood Mysteries, Murdoch Mysteries, and the quirky Agatha Raisin.

There is a new one I just started called "Queens of Mystery" which is also very good. It centers around a detective and her three crime writing aunts as they solve murders.

I would also recommend the family drama "800 Words" and the Martin Clunes comedy/drama "Doc Martin."

For $4.99/month, it can't be beat.

How did you like Agatha Raisin? I hear it's a comedy drama.

I also received a one-year gift subscription. I love it. So many great series to choose from.

For anyone who has AcornTV, I highly recommend "Pie in the Sky," a charming detective series starring Richard Griffiths. It combines sleuthing with culinary arts.

Love, love, love Acorn. Real mystery buffs and watch all the Midsomer Murder, Murdoch, Poirot, etc. All are well acted and well written. We are flying over to London to see the Midsomer filming sights and meet some of the stars. Can’t wait.

@Drlinda you are so lucky to be going to London and all the other spots! I have to admit I am so jealous! Do have fun, and come back and tell us about it!

Songbird1, Agatha Raisin is one of my favorites. The character has a dry sense of humor.

Sometimes she comes across as a bit ditzy, but she is the first to find the killer in the end.

I have both Acorn and Brit Box. They have different offerings. I like them both. I watch both a lot.

I didn't know if I had it or not (I was curious) so I told the Comcast thingy to go to Acorn TV and it did.....so I guess I have it.

I think I could almost tune into Mars. I love TV and use it in various rooms for 'sound'.

I think there are a lot of there channels that are better though.

I do not have it but have watched all the seasons of A Place To Call Home. I loved it! A very good period drama. I just rented each season from my library as it was released. I am now waiting for the last season to come in.
