Being set so far in the past I'm not sure catching newer shows or older
ones matter all that much other than the relationships between some of
the characters that changed over the years. The idea of it didn't strike
me as being that great but once I got into it I've kept up to date with
the shows that have now been running for 19 years. It must be popular to
have lasted that long, and most of the characters are aging better than
one might expect..   B)

I think you mean Frankie Drake Mysteries. (2017 to 2021)
That is set a slightly later than Murdoch but still in the late 1920's.
Lauren Lee Smith is Frankie Drake and she IS quite easy on the eyes.  B)

She was in another series called The Listener where she played a modern
police detective, but in that one she had very short platinum blonde
hair rather than the red locks she sported in Drake, although I think
in 1 or 2 Drake seasons her hair went blonde too..
