Silent Witness (1996– )
7/10
Had a good 20 years but past its prime

Plots may be a bit farfetched and hard to believe that pathologist really get into the weeds of investigating a case, but makes for a good story much of the time. A 2 hour show allows for the story to be fully developed, as time goes on it generally turns in one main story with two secondary story with each of the 3 main character taking one story. Acting is generally very good with good staging.

It had a good run for the first 20 years when it was clear that the writers began grasping for storylines and they became just too unbelievable. They also moved away from the 3 story lines with each of the 3 main characters heading up one of the stories. It then came the Nikki show and she just can't carry the full show.

Don't bother after season 22. The shows needs either a complete reboot or to be put out of its misery. It had 20 good years.
