Alexa Crowe, a complex and confident ex-homicide detective, solves crimes in the Aussie murder-mystery series with generous doses of comedy. Fearless, she acts on instinct, demonstrating both empathy and blunt rudeness. Other than the fact that her husband died a few years ago, few people know much about Alexa or why she left the force. When former colleague and logntime friend Detective Inspector Kieran Hussey asks her to consult on his trickier cases, she seems reluctant. But in truth, she can't resist.

James Croot The Post NZ 08/10/2021
Despite such structural and aesthetic issues, it's easy to see why Murder is a compelling watch for many. Go to Full Review

3/5
It's an enjoyable show, but on this early evidence it feels a little lightweight. Go to Full Review
Joel Keller Decider 08/05/2019
My Life Is Murder is a show that's fun and light entertainment, enhanced by well-written mysteries and performances that don't take themselves seriously. Go to Full Review

S T @RT43334155 Mar 9 Ebony's hairdo is so distracting that it makes the show less authentic See more Diane M @RT16029453 07/19/2024 I was fiddling around trying to find a good mystery and found My Life is Murder. My lucky day. I absolutely love this show. The mysteries are clever and the leading characters are flawless. See more Nancy M @RT72665658 06/18/2024 I was not a fan of Xena Warrior Princess because I don't care for the genre but Lucy Lawless is such a revelation in this show. It's smartly written, hilarious at times and as entertaining a show as I've seen in years. The chemistry between the leads is undeniable. The show also integrates the beauty of Lawless's hometown of Auckland, New Zealand in Seasons 2-4 after moving from Melbourne, Australia due to the pandemic. There is some terrific music from New Zealand bands, including Split Enz. And there are cats! LOL. I highly recommend this show. It will leave you smiling at the very least and Lawless's Alexa Crowe has the best one-liners. See more John-Richard M @RT61933597 04/04/2024 Love this show, and Lucy Lawless is great in this role. See more 11/02/2020 This is a show that doesn't take itself too seriously. It has a strong female lead (it's Xena after all ;) ). A nice diversion with engaging story lines and a cast that seems to work well together. Not a fan of the coffee shop bicycle chap that found his way into the lead's good graces. Other than that, the story lines were comfortable enough. You can do better Alexa ! ;) See more 02/14/2020 Really enjoy this show and watch it on Acorn. Not heavy or graphic. Love the loft she lives in. See more Read all reviews
