Customer Reviews
The csi of old time radio
If you like csi you'll like this!
Sorry to see it end!
I found this late. Sorry to see it go.
Perfect mix!
Despite some complaints from Adam, I absolutely love the mixture of comedy and mystery! Sometimes the murder mysteries and such can get a little too serious and bland and this makes it fun and silly, yet still the show in the "detective" category! Kind of reminds me of a radio version of Magnum P.I because of his humor :-)
