Isn't it about time that someone added a bit of humor to murder in the English countryside? Enter Agatha Raisin, a series coming next month to the U.S. on Acorn TV. Based on the novels by MC Beaton, Agatha Raisin has hints of every British mystery series you've ever seen, but done with a unique humorous twist that catches the viewer off-guard. Set in the Cotswolds, the friends and neighbors who surround Agatha Raisin cover an incredible array of characters (often stereotypes) from the English countryside.
According to the Inquisitr, Acorn TV is a streaming channel that calls itself the chief curator of the best British TV. Acorn TV offers a number of shows from Great Britain, New Zealand, Australia, and Canada that can't be found anywhere else in the United States. Shows like Doc Martin, Midsomer Murders, Vera, and Murdoch Mysteries can be found in their entirety on Acorn TV, and now Agatha Raisin. Also new on Acorn TV is the show Very British Problems featuring James Corden.
